00:00Game number two, of course, the T-Wolves beat the Lakers' ass at the Crypto on Saturday night.
00:07Here is head coach J.J. Redick.
00:09Yeah, that was a bit of a wake-up call.
00:12I think a lot of times you would hear that word and you would think,
00:15oh, it's the point guard calling a play.
00:17No, it's just all of the normal stuff that we try to do,
00:19and when we do it, we're really good.
00:22Being organized is screening.
00:23Being organized is getting to the proper spacing.
00:26Being organized is getting the corners filled after makes and misses.
00:29That's being organized.
00:31It's not like, you know, there's set calls you would call after dead balls, free throws, and whatnot,
00:39but our early offense stuff, like any team, it's the same.
00:43It's remarkable how many possessions.
00:45We had four guys, three, four guys at half court with 15 on the clock,
00:50like literally just bunched up together at half court.
00:53So that's what it means to be organized.
00:55I think he's great.
00:57I think this guy's great.
00:58You know why?
00:59Because he played, and I mean, legit played.
01:02You know, this guy's career at Duke and in the NBA was legit.
01:07He's a legit sharpshooter, and he is a straight shooter as a coach and calls guys out.
01:13And I got to be honest with you, Mike.
01:15I will be really surprised tonight if they don't win, honestly, by like 10.
01:20They have to win this game tonight.
01:22They cannot, in fact, Lakers faithful at the Crypt, they cannot lose this game tonight to the T-Wolves under any circumstances whatsoever.
01:31I mean, it is as must-win as ever.
01:33This is, and it's not about Luka having 37.
01:37It's about everybody balling out.
01:40I'm with you.
01:42I think that this is kind of going to be in the opposite, whereas the Clippers and Nuggets, every game I think is going to be tight.
01:49Every game is going to be close.
01:51I think this will be 1-1 also, but I think it's going to be like game one, except this time the Lakers are going to smash the T-Wolves tonight.
01:58I think it's blowout city.
02:00I think the T-Wolves are one of these teams that still, you know, you lean on them a little bit and get down, get up 15, 20, whatever it is.
02:08I think that you can push them over, and they'll just quit for the night, and they'll say, yeah, you know what?
02:13We got our game here already.
02:14We'll go home 1-1.
02:15It's 5-1 right now, 2-10-1.
02:18I'm laying it with the Lakers.
02:20I mean, yeah, but he said.
02:24Let's go.
02:25Lean them over.
02:25Push them down and lean them over.
02:27And I think you'll get a good performance from LeBron tonight.
02:32Big performance from LeBron.
02:33I think so.
02:34Honestly, I mean, this guy did nothing in game one, and he's a monster, 260-pound monster.
02:42He needs to play like it.
02:44He needs to attack the tent.
02:46I got to tell you, I don't like his game as much extended as I do when he bangs and drives,
02:52when he backs a guy down because he's just a mammoth man, just ripped out of his mind
02:59and can bang anyone he wants down into the low block and then finish with the fingers
03:03on the glass or at the rim.
03:05And, you know, him pulling, he's always pulling up now from 30 feet and shooting and step back,
03:12one-legged wing daggers.
03:14I'm sick of that.
03:16He's too big, too strong, too violent to not be going to the tent.
