There’s tons of hot takes about the Lakers, probably.
But the main lesson is very simple: basketball is a team sport, and the bigger, stronger the team, the better.
My Spurs are tasting blood, losing close games or winning with poise. They’re not doing so well but the team spirit is alive. It’s visible from YouTube highlights.
The Clippers have been phenomenal. Winning a back to back game down 30 points on the road? They did that. With basically their third unit. That’s a deep team. They hustle, play hard, progress.
The Lakers are a bunch of individuals making way too much money.
