I got lakers in 6
Ham did 4 things vs GS that gave me faith in him as a coach:
1- Immediately making it clear they not guarding Draymond and Looney. Most coaches get cute. He got right to it
2-Quickly moving on from Troy brown/identifying Lonnie walker’s opportunity
3- Not losing faith in AR15
4- Smartly moving to Dennis in game 6 for that matchup
All of that shows me Ham knows his shyt. I say all that to say: Putting Jokic in pick and roll is easy money for LA. And LA has 2 elite P&R threats in D Lo and AR. Austin Reaves particularly is gonna feast this series
And then LeBron who’s slow af now, and can consistently get past probably 5 guys max in the league right now….Well, 1 of em is Jokic . So we’ll get closer to classic Bron. And when the last time Bron lost to a closely matched squad
