00:00DRS of our three home favorites tonight Indiana and Oklahoma City can take a commanding 2-0 series lead making good on home court advantage the Lakers have already let that slip so as a five and a half point home favorite in game number two tonight in downtown Los Angeles the Lakers need this one to even up the set against Anthony Edwards in the Minnesota Timberwolves five and a half point spread in favor of LA that over understands at 210 and a hook can the Lakers even
00:29up this series and if so as the odds expect the RS can they make it look comfortable tonight covering as a five and a half point home favorite I hope it's comfortable because I do think the Lakers do win in cover so everybody likes that hey jump out to a seven or eight point lead at the end of the first quarter and never look back we're looking at those options but also understand this Minnesota Timberwolves understand the game too because there are elements where it's like whoo like let's just say Memphis we got a winning game number one against OKC they probably would have gotten beat by 15 game number two because like what job
00:59accomplished man we're going home 1-1 that's not the case for the Timberwolves like if you want to beat the Los Angeles Lakers this is how you beat them take the first two games on their home court and don't say well we won the game number one now we'll just go back to Minnesota and see what happens that's not the way to play it out so you would expect that Minnesota is out for blood tonight and rightfully so but the same thing on the opposite side with the Lakers understanding these aren't two games on the road which like all right we came up 0-2 but we go back home
01:29you lose the first two games on your home court you are not coming back in this series because again just the byproduct of Minnesota just has to split at home in games three and four and then they're going to win this series anyway you can't have that and also understanding this LeBron James performance unacceptable in game number one to be insignificant per se through the first half of that game and then try to turn it on you need your best players playing all four quarters against the Timberwolves team which is pretty good on defense I look at the points probably Lucas at 30 and a half which is insane
01:59that LeBron number 24 and a half at plus 100 I want to see where this actually gets closer to game time here because LeBron understands this he's got to get started first and understand this as well as the team concept like Lucas not gonna be like hey LeBron take the first quarter off again you know Luke is gonna do hey Bron get yours in the first quarter let's get you five six seven points here so then maybe you can build on this and we can both be engaged all the way through I'm focused on LeBron James and that 24 and a half marker tonight and also focused on the Lakers handling their business which I
02:29can't say I think they win but don't cover if I think they win it's gonna be about six plus tonight they cover
