Inside The NBA reacts to Klay Thompson, Warriors roll over Lakers 127-110 to even series 1-1

[Music]well it may have been the Anthony Davisshow in game one but it was all goldenstate tonight what a bounce back for thereigning NBA champs they get it done ontheir home court even up the serieswinning huge 127 100 that final scorewelcome back to playoff Central live sohappy you could join us Ashley somebodyIsaiah Thomas we've got Sam Mitchell youguys what a game that was that is a wayto respond after you lose in game one onyour home floor you do what needs to bedone you get work done and that is whatthe Warriors did tonight that's exactlywhat they did came out got the win gametwo did what they needed to do not onlydid they do what they needed to do interms of winning the basketball game butSam also minutes played when you look atthe minutes played you know Steph onlyplayed 29 minutes tonight clay 31minutes so they got their rest so thatwas a good win tonight yeah if you'rethe Lakers you darling ham you're happyyou got the split but you got to beconcerned this lineup change that Stevekerring started tonight with Jermichaelgreen they crushed the Lakers on theglass 55 to 40. and the Lakers have ahuge size Advantage huge athleticismAdvantage but Golden State crushed themand if Golden State can play physicalbasketball and meet the Lakersphysicality and out rebound them thenyou know we all think the Lakers goingto win this series play we're gonna haveto rethink this because if they canmatch the Lakers physicality and thatsize by changing the lineup and playingthis waywe may have a seven game series well thesmall lineup gives them movement andgives them more movement and you knowmovement and spacing creates morerebounding opportunities and more foulshooting opportunities so when you havemovement and spacing you know you get achance look guys like myself we get achance to get in there and get a reboundyou know but when you just have the lanecompacted that's when big guys canreally control it but when you have allthat movement going around and then youhave spacing along with it look guys canshoot in there get rebounds and takeadvantage I don't think the Lakers couldplay at this pace both of these teamsshot about 95-96 shots that's a lot ofshots in the NBA game especially aplayoff game and I think darlingham isgoing to have to go back and say okay wegot a little drunk off game one you'renot gonna look and I say the same thingabout Boston last year you're not gonnaout shoot Golden State yeah you may doit one game here and there but over thecourse of a series you're gonna have toslow this game down play inside out bestball because you're not gonna I'll quickthem outrun them out shoot them so theLakers gonna have to go back hit thereset button and then think about howthey want to attack this team GoldenState figure things out tonight theymade 21 threes in game one but thatwasn't working for them because it wasall free throws it was all paint pointsfor the Lakers in that first gametonight the Warriors once again 21 madethrees but like you said they were justmore physical they played with pace andthose were big difference makers you seethey were able to even out free throwspoints in the paint and that was theDifference Maker tonight because whenyou like you said them when you'remaking shots like golden state doesmaking threes like they do they're hardto beat when they combine all of thattogether yeah the physical part of thegame let's get into the free throw linethe team that gets to the free throwline has always got a huge Advantagebecause also the other team didn't filetrouble so that means your starterscan't be as aggressive every foul theteam is getting rewarded by going to thefree throw line so it really upsets howphysical you want to play how aggressiveyou want to play and it kind of got theLakers on the hill early and they'vepaid Thompson staff if they can do thisand play this style of basketball orDraymond Green another's looking toscore again the Lakers got their handsfull because Anthony Davis reverted backto the Anthony Davis said we don't wantto see the way he played tonight yeah Imean when you talk about movementspeed quickness that negates size andyou know trust me when I say this righthereif you got speed and quickness that thatnegates size and what you saw would goto state tonight they have speed theyhave quickness and therefore they wasable to spread the floor and you sawthey were able to get better shots andyou know the Lakers couldn't keep upwith them to exert their physicality soyou know you look at Golden State thatball was moving it was passing aroundand the lane was wide open and theyreally couldn't get close enough to themto catch It Wide Open shots layups dunkseverything you wanted because of thatspeed that small lineup in the shootingbefore tonight's game though guys wewere talking about if you've got aLeBron James and you've got AnthonyDavis doing what he did in game one theyare hard to stop but that has been theproblem with ad that we've seen beforejust the inconsistency we saw it against90 at 30 points in game one and tonighthe had 11. so what is what do we need todo how do we need to figure out how dothe Lakers Darvin hamney to figure outwhat goes on what they eat if we knewthat we would be just never here we'llbe babythat's the that's the thing aboutAnthony Davis just so frustrated you seethe talent you see the nights where youcan make an argument they have thirdnight where Anthony Davis is the bestplayer in the NBA when you look at whathe does defensively the mid-range ableto shoot the three good knock down freethrows but then they're nice like thisto where if he doesn't get out to aquick start he just disappears and theycan't have that again when LeBron Jameshas to be the best player it's troublefor the Lakers all right if we don'tknow the answers maybe Darvin ham doeswe're going to hear from him right nowlet's do it how did you feel like youguys responded to thatGary Payton II early uh you know theystarted off with jamichael bringingLooney Off the Bench sowe anticipated something like that butyou know for us I think justour stagnation I felt like you know Istill have to go back and watch the gameand umbut my gut feeling my instincts tell tome that my eyes saw us settle a littlebit we mishandled the ball some early wewere right there early on neck and neckbut a couple of possessions got awayfrom us earlyum and I just thought they did a goodjob of crowding the plane trout excuseme crowding the paint and not allowingustrying to prevent us from playingdownhill as much and that in turnsaffect you know what affects what we doat the free throw line so we'll go backto the drawing drawing board and look atdifferent ways we can sustain what wedid well and what we've done well overthese the the course of these first twogames and then look at what we canpossibly do betterof course new series now but you losegame two in Memphis after winning gameone you get back home is there adifferent type of a sense of your teamand how do you think that you willrespond and how different are theseseries and what these opponentchallenges are and not I fullyanticipate our team to respond in theright wayDarvin uh 80 11 points tonight 11 shotsuh one free throw attempt what did youmake of draymond's defense against himand you reference crowding the paintthey obviously anytime he was rolling ortrying to catch the ball there was twothree guys around him at all times yoDre he's gonna do his work early youknow it's the reason why he's aperennial perennial all defensive playerum you know he's going to force toughcatches and when he's on the ballhe he's his own ball activity Second ToNoneum and he's a good communicator whenthen when if a is not trying to go athim we're going into a secondary actionafter getting the ball to a he's greatabout that whether he has to switch ortalk hishis guy throughum through the scenario he's uhhe's he's been you know top shelf hisentire career in that in in that regardsoagain we just we got to go back look atways we can move a around put him indifferent uh spacing different actionsand just try to diversify his attackDarvin you guys went the entirepostseason from the playing round firstfirst round and uh game one againstGolden State without allowing 40 and aquarter and you do it second and thirdquarter today where do you think yourdefense uh wasn't up to Snuff tonight Imean I just think just being ready fromuh from our the ball leaving ourShooter's handssprinting back in transition gettingmatched up communicatingum you know you make one slip you missone assignment they're gonna make youpay and as I mentioned before they'reprobably most dangerous once they givethe ball up and that's when that'sthat's that's when the race starts Imean those guys ability toyou know run around on the floor and andthey're bigs and their facilitators guysknowing whereyou know they can blindly throw a passand that pass is going to be connectingto clay or Steph or Jordan right in thatspotum and you know they they have a lot ofpride a ton of Pride their championshipball club for a reason and uh you knowafter game one we fully anticipated themto come out and and throw some Haymakerswhich they did and you know Clay got offhe was seeing the ball go in early andoften soagain we got our work cut out for us butyou know you don't get this to thispoint in the season by it being easy youhave to buckle down do your homeworklook at ways you know the W's and L'sthe wisdom and losses lessons and lookat ways you uhyou can get better from it and and trynot to make the same mistakes twicea Darvin I I believe that uh this is the16th game in the postseason now wherethe team that was at home and lost thefirst game came back and won the secondgame what's that kind of say about uhjust the postseason and the intensity ofitI mean it just you you know you come inyou shift the home court advantage bytaking being the road team taking gameoneand again not just you knowyou talk about different teams in thisposition
