The defending champs get huge games from Draymond Green, Andrew Wiggins. They out-rebound the Lakers by 10 and the Lakers just don't have enough offensively guys execution-wise in this game to get it done and to top that all off the biggest concern right now Anthony Davis who took an elbow from Kevon Looney and did not return to the game. So Rob, that's where it stands right now. Lakers coming home on Friday with a chance to close it out. Yeah, it looked kind of scary because when AD was walking out the floor he didn't look very stable but the thing about it is the Lakers are coming home. They're going to be on their home court. They're going to get some rest and LeBron knows what's at stake. They'll have to recover. I'm interested in hearing what Brez explained the NBA protocol and how that works for the next couple days. Yeah, if it's a concussion we don't know that yet. There's been no word from the Lakers. Maybe he's just you know not feeling great but if it's a concussion diagnosis it gets a little serious. He has to stay out at least 24 hours from any type of activity and what what the NBA does and has done for several years now before the season starts they test each player's cognitive skills. You know how quickly can you can you grip a can you grab a ruler if it's dropped between your hands. That's one example and you have to live up to those measurements if indeed you have suffered a concussion to make sure you're back to where you were when you were healthy before the season began. Also if it's a concussion have to show you can ride a stationary bike and do some jogging and that type of thing. It's a process so we'll have to see if he is indeed diagnosed with that. Hopefully not. Let's be clear though that there's been no diagnosis yet but we'll have to see. You just don't like the report from Chris Haynes on TNT. They left in a wheelchair. Got kind of moved around in the underbelly of the arena and won. That's not a good report. Let's talk this game guys. The Warriors able to get AD away from the basket for much of this game and it gave them a lot of confidence. They attacked big game James. They had 50 points in the paint. By their standards only 13 threes. They shot 37 percent but they just got key key performances by guys like Draymond Green who went for 20. Andrew Wiggins who went for 25. Even Gary Payton the second who started again and got 13. Jordan Poole hit a couple shots. They just seemed to get enough from everyone else. And they got them in in a timely fashion too especially you know guys like Moody coming in hitting a couple threes but Draymond Green kind of set the pace. He really was extremely active you know getting guys involved early. Tough defense. Got physical with AD early. Had AD kind of fading away a little bit until he got aggressive in the paint. But yeah I mean it was a collective effort by Golden State and then you know in the fourth quarter you had Steph Curry you know put a couple nails in the coffin with some threes. But yeah I mean it I mean it it was a game that Lakers could it was right there. I mean they were hanging around they were right there. And so you know and I look at the categories they went that far apart as far as the percentage of shooting from the three from the free-throw line things like that. So I mean it was a game you know and not having AD the last six minutes of the game really yeah that really that really hurt. But you know you got game six coming up. It just felt like to me I mean we're all watching the game together like they either just couldn't get enough stops or when they did and they were within striking distance Rob they didn't have a great shot selection or the shots wouldn't fall or even just coming out of that third quarter where you think they're right there. I think they shot four threes in a row maybe old for four and the Warriors weren't scoring either and that was kind of an opportunity we all thought that you could get back you know to five or six. You know for me it's a when you need a bucket go have a go-to play you come down you shoot a couple of bad threes we said okay is that a good three is a bad three you know and in the playoffs down the stretch on the road if that's a good shot you don't take it if it's a great shot you take it and the way the Lakers played down the stretch they were taking good shots but you can't have that on the road you got to have great shots and the Warriors were almost trying to give the game to the Lakers because they weren't shooting the threes like everybody thought they would they was getting to the rack there was getting loose balls and now the thing about about loony loony causes so much havoc yeah and they were tipping balls out knocking people out it's just one of the things that you got to understand so you got to find a way to match that knowing the Golden State had their backs against the wall and it was gonna be an attack mode. Prez I think the key for them really was I mean it's always going to be Steph but Trayvon Green and the way he played five for five from the line he had 20 points he had he had 10 rebounds stepped into that three early in the game and hit it he was kind of off and running he was attacking he had the ball more in his hands he was 7 of 11 I think he was the key yeah I feel like the Warriors you know primarily thanks to Draymond they kind of out Lakered the Lakers they were tougher on the boards better on points in the paint even before A.D. got hurt it was definitely trending that direction and you know it's like the Warriors before the game we're all saying oh how many threes are they going to hit 18 20 25 it's not like they blitzed the Lakers with a ton of threes they were just tougher by the basket Draymond a huge part of that no doubt we can talk Steph a little bit Steph quietly nine points in the fourth as you mentioned a big game 27 points for Steph yeah I mean they had like I said they had a collective effort they really had to lean on him too much he he's he played the game right tonight at home didn't really try to you know go out all out and score a lot of points uh because they had other guys involved you saw in the fourth quarter a few big threes there to close it out yeah when Wiggins and Draymond combined for 45 you're in trouble you're in trouble we get we in this day and age where we got to know every little detail about players what's the injury is you know let's keep it in house and don't let nobody know what's going on the the disappointment for the Lakers is had they won tonight and obviously that's a that's a tall task they were eight point underdogs this is Golden State's last stand the defending champs they're at home where they were so good all year had the Lakers won tonight they wouldn't be playing again till till Sunday at the earliest yeah maybe even Tuesday obviously that that didn't happen Lakers were behind almost from the uh second quarter on and now we have to play the uh the waiting game see how ad is you know it's interesting you know they came out with a lot of swings uh Golden State in in just a flurry of punches and the Lakers were able to withstand that and then all of a sudden you look and they got a two-point lead it was the last four minutes and 11 seconds of that second quarter that's where they're so dangerous that's a 16 to 5 run big game and then it just felt like catch up the rest of the way right they were always down 9 or 11 it was just they couldn't like yeah that was my biggest fear when the Lakers have a you know a pretty good decent second quarter about to go into it close and then those last two minutes and 30 seconds something happens two threes turnover and it expands that lead to like 10 or 11 and then the momentum that Golden State's able to carry in the locker room uh because of that then they come out but I thought the Lakers were right there man they took some of their best shots got it under 10 I know so if it's a good thing to look at you gotta look at you know second opportunities for Golden State that they got too many of those bunch of those and uh execution to a bad shot though the bad shot because we feeling good we come down so I can take this shot and the office is going this way you take a shot and they're off to the races they get to eat and this is what you gotta do the greatest team of all time at making you pay yes because of how they use the three-point line right you make a bad shot they're coming down Steph's hitting three the place is going crazy and it's just you gotta make Golden State work I mean if you've got a nice shot yeah with time on the clock but with the 24 seconds you gotta you gotta make them you gotta make them work a little bit and take advantage of some mismatches you know and make Steph play defense and you know you gotta make them work you just can't quick shots you play right into their their hands Golden State champs for the reason uh champs for a reason if I would have told you two weeks ago they'd be up three two with a chance to close out I think everybody was signed off on that so they're still up in the series you know I picked D'Lo as the uh take your shot and I feel like I would do it again in game six because don't you have that feeling that he's gonna have to be that guy just like he was in game six against Memphis like when the Lakers really can roll D'Lo's got to give that offensive punch early yeah he has to has to be an attack ball you know D'Lo has a tendency to play with the ball and stay on the outside but when he's driving it makes the defense protect the drive and hitting the J and then hitting the J he moves out to the three you know he's he's a one-on-one player very crafty can also draw fouls he's really good at getting people in position where he can draw fouls so he can't defer he can't be I mean I know he's the point guard he's got to do some things but at his position he's got to be in attack mode he can score all right guys uh let's keep talking D'Angelo Russell a little bit maybe even Dennis he say he tells BT all the time he's not a point guard he's Dennis Schroeder with some offense yes too yes I really like the way Dennis Schroeder play he had a couple careless turnovers there but when Dennis Schroeder can lock you up defensively and then knock down some threes that makes the Lakers that much more dangerous because when he he's almost like D'Lo in the sense where he has to be aggressive and not play with the rock because so many times when they come out and set the pick and roll he doesn't come off aggressive now he kind of just floats out there and waits to see what AD is going to do no go ahead and get yours because that's going to make it easier for AD because when he sees you getting yours the other his player his defensive man is going to come help then you got to roll to the basket or you got to pop back so I think the same thing for D'Lo applies to uh Dennis Dennis because he needs to be aggressive now I agree I mean both D'Lo and Schroeder are crafted you see how the Schroeder gets to the cups he's very deceptive and they both are really good at while they're you know handling the basketball to use their eyes to look you off and they get the shots off so we need that we're going to need those guards to put pressure on Curry on on pulled wiggers they really do need to uh have more pressure because I hate to see opponents just kind of roaming free that's why I thought in the fourth quarter uh the last game when Walker came in he was I saw I saw Curry putting pressure on their guard so they they got to do more of that make Curry work more D'Angelo Russell scored 15 points he's in the locker room with Ali D'Angelo you guys weathered that early storm for the Warriors to start it was back and forth until about three and a half minutes to go in the first half they were able to create some separation what kind of change does they carry that momentum to the second I wish I knew honestly um would love to check the film kind of get a better view on it before I just say something um so I mean I mean they protect their home court give them give them their um credit for that throughout course of the series obviously you guys are five games in what's the key to kind of winning the little battles throughout the course of the game to ultimately make that difference uh just being focused I think as a group just being focused um you can't have one guy not locked in or two kind of so like a triple down affects me try to come with that that aggression as as a unit you know offensively and defensively I think it'll take care of the small things D'Angelo you guys were in a very similar situation last series different series but winning in in six games what do you take out of that that needs to be applied one game at a time honestly um try to lose yourself in the focus um try not to really get caught up in all the other stuff going into it you know just get get just lose yourself in the focus and look up and we'll get that one game that we need it was when you hit a shot late and then um ad gets hit in the head did that take some emotional um out of this team some emotion out of this team oh I mean I mean they came down it was playing five on four so just trying to figure out a way to get a stop and do it you know what was going on after that I'm sure you guys believe if ad can't play friday night that you can still win if he can't play friday night how do you make that win without him well we won't know until we know uh you know what what's for sure and what's not obviously you know how important it is to take care of the basketball especially in this series tonight what what was the difference there just killed us turnovers they scored it came down and got threes out of it um you know it's different if they're coming down they're getting twos but they were getting three so obviously that's a big point of emphasis that won't you know allow us to to get a win for sure can't get a win against these guys like that chris haynes with this update on anthony davis early diagnosis diagnosis indicates ad appears to have avoided a concussion and is doing much better now league sources tell nba on tnt and bleacher report rob at least for now that is very good news yeah it was a it was a sharp blow and uh sometimes it takes a few minutes to to figure out exactly what happened and it's good that they took him back uh you know took a review of what was going on and uh like rob said you know he seems to be okay uh past a couple of things you know not sensitive to light a little headache a couple couple ad deal he'll be okay we'll be okay then as you kind of look at that first half and the warriors with about three and a half to go in the second quarter were able to kind of create a bit of separation to carry that momentum into the third what kind of changed for you guys in that moment yeah i mean we didn't close it up very well um i mean delo myself we got in trouble but um at the end of the day you know we still gotta have our guys out there competing and finish it out strong um but i think they play with more you know urgency more energy um than us and that can happen you guys have always said your identity all season has been playing fast physical and free to be able to take advantage of that now in game six kind of impose your will where does it start on the defensive end getting stops and then i mean share the ball play together and play fast i think that's where we had our best and that's what we gotta do for 48 minutes sounded like there was some good news with anthony davis but as you guys kind of wait over the next 48 hours as you prepare for game six what's kind of the mentality and focus like we had all season next man up mentality hopefully ad is back but end of the day we want to go out there and win one more game and if it's with ad or without ad we still got to compete and try to get the w with or without ad i mean right now the diagnosis so far is positive brez but i guess uh you know tomorrow will be another day and hopefully get a little more information but uh what are you looking forward to game six here friday you're gonna be down there hey yeah makers six and oh in the postseason at crypto.com marina including that game in the play-in against minnesota just got to defend home court it's the exact same template as at memphis series the game just looking forward to on friday night gonna be fun win win come out aggressive uh i thought they you know fought to tonight uh make less turnovers take advantage of the sides inside could win downhill play means go to the basket get to the free throw line that's how you've been winning games don't lose that aggression come on you know how we feel about draymond green when he's aggressive we know the numbers you know it's been proven is in the put the proof is in the pudding when draymond green scores more than 10 or plus 10 percent 78 so i love the fact that draymond green attention to detail he was barking he was turnt up like we like to say that's what we wanted yeah exactly we got that i just thought it was really cool having time is on pregame and talking about draymond's career even through college has always been a winner has only cared about winning will make all the defensive plays but he also said offensively when he steps up and scores like this it makes him a totally different player it makes the warriors a different team yeah so the warrior scores 70 points in the first half the most they've scored in the half this postseason and draymond green passes up jerry west on the all-time assist leader in the playoffs he's now in 16th place surpassing the logo jerry west andrew wiggins since he came into the nba as the number one pick he's always been a what you see with him on this team especially coming back after missing two months he's still getting his rhythm and he's out there on the court he's giving you everything you see seven rebounds you see five assists the intangibles that help your team win is what happens when you're on a winning team when you're on the in in the right situation with a team that you really want to fight for and see him come out tonight and play that way really encouraging for this warriors team great game by andrew wiggins across the board scoring rebounded assisting and if you look at those clips he was driving the paint he was posting up he knocked down two threes and i think that's the way the warriors play this entire game they shoot 51 percent from the field right they take 92 field goal attempts only 35 threes so they were really certain exactly we talked pre-game about attacking the lakers not exclusively off the dribble so you should you saw some pick and roll you saw some iso plays and i you know i thought just the pace of the game the warriors dictated played their style of play and the efficiency numbers really show that that's a 20-point game for andrew wiggins this postseason that's after missing the final 25 games of the regular season he looks fresh his legs look active and we'll hope hopefully he'll carry that into la in game number six again jordan pool had the ball in his hands with about 14 seconds left came across half court patiently gathered the ball gave it to number 30 and you know yes he made that shot it's a dynamic shot you took the last shot of the half that's a smart aware basketball play and a quick 6-0 run in those last 30 seconds back-to-back threes by clay thompson and stephan curry as we check out curry's night again 27 points 8 assists 3 rebounds hurry 9 to 13 from inside the perimeter there so a really good night on tuesday as you see him number 22 on the list for all-time assists in playoff history look at that surpassing your old teammate your old boy mark jackson of course his former head coach you see jaymond green up there in 16th place surpassing jerry west tonight so the warriors are going to be littered all over these playoff records as they've been on a great run here and they'll try to continue it but they're gonna have to slow down lebron james lebron james it felt like he was on his way to 40 points tonight he had it rolling early had a three ball working now he plays some heavy minutes tonight but you know he'll be ready for game number six after playing 39 minutes lebron's never worried about his numbers he's always going to get his numbers he can score when he wants he does a beautiful job of reading the game seeing what the game needs he'll turn it on when needed and to me he's that unique great player that really his passing ability is his greatest gift he's great at everything but for his teammates his passing ability getting his teammates involved is what he really focused on first and foremost uh and i i think he's going to be really aggressive friday night yes he doesn't want to come back here for mother's day on sunday for game seven at chasing all right anthony davis he doesn't want to come back up here either what the warriors are doing right now that's really helping is playing him without following him just contesting the shots he's gonna make it but you can't overreact to those shots yeah he's one of those great players where you just got to hope he misses you know you could be aggressive you could get up into him but you definitely want him to miss so they i thought they did a great job with playing him tough it's always hard when you get in foul trouble early on because you can't be as aggressive as you want to be so i felt like the uh the warriors did a great job as far as team defense playing against anthony davis you gotta give draymond green and kevon looney a lot of credit you know with that small ball lineup to be able to guard him one-on-one in the post is a huge factor because now you're not getting into defensive rotations with the double team opening up three point shots for their role players so again i give a lot of credit to draymond and kevin looney able to guard anthony davis one-on-one he's another guy look he's gonna get his numbers um but if you can stop him from having an impact on his teammates have him get his points and rebounds especially keep off the free throw line and don't have his assist numbers get up because of double teaming him you mentioned andrew wiggins did a nice job on the bad times forward in game number six you don't want to get the crowd into the game the turnovers all those things the tough shots those are things that you can take when you get rolling and for clay thompson and for jordan pool i love watching them get their shots in the flow of the game tonight i think that all overall for this team actually works better that's how they were able to get to 29 assists play he's doing his job you think about the laker defense if if steph's handling the ball they're double teaming him and face guarding clay thompson that's where draymond green andrew wiggins and gary peyton the second are getting their baskets they are not leaving clay thompson and they're really focusing on steph curry with the basketball will be double teaming him showing on him so those next three guys are making the proper plays and that's why we had the 20 points from jamon green 25 from uh andrew wiggins and 13 from gp2 making the right plays because they're taking away steph and clay he started off one of seven in the first quarter but that timely three at the end of the half there was huge for to go to state lawyers as they were clinging to a five point lead all right jordan pool he's been a big name around these parts played a good game and i thought he was aware making good decisions good shot selection you see the four assists no turnovers and i i go back to that play at halftime you know 15 seconds left took his time got the ball to steph simple play but the right play and by the way he played 11 minutes last game right so it's not like he played his regular minutes how many times have we seen uh jordan pool maybe have a struggle in 11 minutes the next 15 minutes explode right so let's calm down with with the you know over criticizing this kid he's playing an all-star level if this team's gonna make a deep run he's gonna be a part of it they absolutely need jordan pool for them to make the run in the playoffs they need to make what i love in this game is that he was just making straight line drives and for him his speed is his advantage against any defender getting into the teeth of the defense four assists today that is huge for this team because when he's in the game those non-step minutes are really crucial because now they focus that defense on jordan pool and so the ability to stretch out the defense when ad or whoever whatever that big is when you can stretch them out when they're trying to double team you and kick it back to the role players so they can make plays on the back end i think that's really huge for this war you see man that offense for sure really thought jp played a solid game and i love what you just mentioned molly playing 11 minutes you can't really show and do what you do you know we all know jordan pool is one of those guys once he gets it going he's gonna get hot so i thought he played a solid game he did a great job play making and he also did a good job with just playing on balance and at a at a nice pace i was gonna say also it was not the first time an nba player after having a tough game or a tough 11 minutes didn't feel like talking to the media that's a fact everybody chill no doubt move on to the next game i don't like losing a monopoly bully i wouldn't talk to you for 15 minutes all right steve your guys shot better than 50 they raced out to a 70 point halftime it would look like a really strong and balanced offense is that as simple as shot selection and making the extra pass i thought it was uh it was that but um it started with pace you know we're really pushing the ball in transition and that got their defense um you know on its heels and allowed us to attack and gain advantages and and then that ball movement led to really good shots we've talked about steph's will to win especially in that game seven against the kings tonight in an elimination game how about draymond's will to win yeah draymond was incredible he started out the game just with so much emotion and you know we actually had to try to calm him down a little bit but uh he's a he's such a competitor and he's a great player and you know when he attacks and he scores like that we're we're a much better team you mentioned this is the best game that andrew wiggins had since he returned from that long personal absence could this game be the model for him what should he apply in game six i think the aggressiveness is the key you know he was really looking to attack and get into the paint and i thought that was the difference for wigs this is the best he's looked since his return and it makes sense you know he's been back for maybe three or four weeks and uh so it takes some time not only for your conditioning and endurance but for the rhythm and the feel and it looks to me like he's all the way back and finally gary peyton the second state in your starting lineup 27 minutes a plus 25 we know that plus minus can be a little imperfect but tonight it seems like good things happen when he's on the floor gary's a game changer we knew that last year i mean we you know we won the championship with him playing a huge role so um it's so great to have him back and uh you know he um he just gives us a great on ball defender and then um you know a unique score as well with his ability to to use the speed to get out in transition and you know dive to the rim on pick and roll and um gary's here he's a game changer so he was awesome tonight thank you onward la all right thanks carol listen ad has been huge in this series you know at the start of the series he was getting a lot of a lot of criticism because he was on and off his numbers were 30 points one night and 12 the next night he saw those criticisms and he really has come back and responded last three games 20 points he's been huge for the lakers they are force feeding him the basketball because that's where the mismatch is you have a big guy but what you said earlier is really true there could be something in the fact that andrew wiggins could be the one guy who's athletic enough to guard him on the defensive end and so they're i'm looking to see some of that match up in the next game yeah my thoughts on it is i'm just happy he might be available for the next game we want to see a healthy both teams so uh the fact that he's getting better love to hear that so ready for game goggles for ad friday night you never know because you know i'm glad he's okay because that could be a tough injury he really could so hopefully he's okay tomorrow and healthy to go but this team is up three two because of lebron james and anthony davis and then they they paved the way for the but they've been dominant and they don't look tired to me i don't keep everyone keeps saying they play a lot of minutes they look pretty fresh to me so um yeah with ad i mean he's one of the great players in the league and i'm glad he's healthy you got poked in the eye before in the league right how was it you know when i got poked in the eye i had the next day i had a lot of symptoms so you know it can be really tough uh tough injury but if he's feeling better now that's a good sign all right that is a good sign here all right let's go to moses moody who's starting to get some run here oh man moses moody we all talk about this all the time when he comes around us his interviews just how mature he is he's ahead of his time so far as a 20 year old in his league but i think he brings this team great minutes we've seen it last year in the dallas series a big 20 point game so anytime moses moody can get out there and get some quality minutes is always key for this team i think even him on the defensive end for this team being a big guard that can switch out he doesn't make mistakes on the defensive end that's one thing i love when i watch him you talk about staying ready that comes with a lot of study like you have to study the film you have to understand tendencies and those are things that are harder when you don't get minutes on the court shows you that this guy is a winner because he is prepared for his opportunity whenever he gets it tonight two big threes yes four rebounds being in the right position getting rebounds as a guard really coming in and getting those rebounds when you're playing small that's really huge for your guards to come in and crash the boards those are all winning plays for a basketball team he's earned the trust and respect of steve kerr and the trust and respect of his teammates and you're right bonsai those shots are huge because in the laker defense they're leaving him open so whether you knock down a three-point shot like like moses moody has or you cut to the basket get a label like gary payton too you're making that defense pay for overplaying steph and clay all right moses moody standing by with the great kb kareth burke right now can you kind of capture for us moses what you guys were all thinking coming into this game uh draymond gave another one of those talks last uh what was that last game one of these days uh just saying you know the the the magnitude of each game so to say like a the whole meet the whole uh narrative change after one game you could feel it being down to one i'm two three it's completely different than three one and um making them have to go defend home court and then they're not gonna want to have to come play game seven here so not a pressure on them and just keeping that dynamic let's talk about draymond's game he started with a foul on ad almost like telling him it's not gonna be an easy night for you bud you backed that up with the three-pointer and then draymond arrived at 20 and 10 how important was he to this win man i know he had 20 and 10 yeah he was very important you know even stuff that don't show up on the stat sheet um the leadership obviously the energy he he you know he has a way of uh controlling energy and winning the mental battle as well what are you thinking about the balance of the offense tonight you guys had six scores and double digits you come in knock down a pair of threes it seems pretty important especially give steph a little help yeah you know everybody got to step in and do their part this uh this how this thing goes you know i've been here in my second year now so i'm starting to get a groove and starting to see what the playoffs are about and that's what it's about everybody stepping in and adding a two cent hey one game at a time is a cliche but maybe it's said for a reason you guys are going back to la what's the mindset for that one yeah that's that's what the playoffs is about one game at a time you know once you win one game everybody everybody thinks it's just going another way then you lose one game so it's all about one game if the series wasn't the way it was and and we was we was in a situation to close it out we would have to win one more game so we're just gonna keep that same mindset taking it a game at a time thank you very much no problem thank you you felt the absence of wiggins when he was when he was away from the team right he's a guy that can get you easy buckets whenever the team is stuck they could throw it to him on the block to go get a bucket i love to see him on the block especially against a guy like dennis shorter some of those smaller guards he's just a guy who also has a mismatch on this end he had 25 points the rebounds and the assist he played a great game you know but you look at gp2 and draymond 11 of 16 from the field 9 of 10 from the free throw line combined draymond is 505 from the free throw line oh yeah he's had some really good big time performance locked in yeah he is locked in as we head to hollywood for game number six the los angeles lakers going down in this one golden state extending the series a 121 106 win zeke you were talking about this in the pregame this was one of those games that the lakers had to kind of take care of business right you don't want to mess around with this golden state squad especially with the experience that they have not only the experience but anything can happen and as we just saw you know we don't know what what davis condition is going to be for the next game and hey i remember you know playing against the celtics in the game seven situation you know we we got a chance to win the game and we're up vinnie johnson and adrian dantley collide heads they both go out with a concussion we end up losing game seven so you know we don't know what's going to happen with davis the next game and how he's going to be affected but you know this is definitely you know gives the other team you know incentive and momentum you know when they see one of the star players is down and injured like this yeah we we talked about it pre-game everyone said should they rest if they get down at halftime it seemed like the mood has just changed i mean for los angeles lakers fan um you lost this game possibly you know you worried about the condition of anthony davis now i don't i mean what's the chatter now it's okay to lose a game i mean i think everybody who's been in this you don't give anybody life and especially a team like the golden state warriors who have not shot the basketball well from three they haven't had one of those games where isaiah me sitting up here going bang bang when they have one of those and when they can could be game six it could be game seven but then they might have somebody else that could carry him like a wiggins did tonight and i think wiggins is ready to go right now you see the different mindset draymond came up with 20 now if you get pool to hit five or six threes in one of these games then you got everybody rolling and everybody's not gonna hit three but they got so many people isaiah's running that way you got to go wiggins pool steph and then draymond downhill uh that that that's a lot of weapons and you call this one with andrew wiggins smitty was right on right on target when he called it before the game like you know he was due you know put up 25 points tonight 10 to 18 from the field and you know going into the next game now now he's got confidence and it's just a matter of time i think the whole world knows it's just a matter of time before clay thompson gets going clay clay is not going to stay this way he's too great a shooter so you know it's it's going to be a great game in la you know they they're trying to close the champ out and they're gonna need everything that they um that's in the arsenal to close golden state out that's why if i'm a lakers fan i'm i'm feeling uneasy because even steph said it uh post game the guys on tnt he said listen i'm not shooting the three well clay's been on and off right and he said the pressure is now on the lakers to protect their home court yeah and that's kind of the way it feels even though they're down in the series it kind of feels like the lakers have more pressure yeah i mean just look at this game they win you know by 16 pool steph and clay thompson goes 6 for 23 from 3 and they still win by 16 probably not gonna happen well what if that's 12 for 23 yeah or 14 for 28 so totally which we know they're capable of which is just 50 percent yeah which is that's just average for them yeah draymond green now six straight games where the warriors have won a playoff game when he has scored 20 or more and he gave them offense early in this one finishes with 20 points 10 rebounds for assists in this game i mean what more can you say about draymond in terms of when when it's time to do it no matter what golden state needs but draymond green is their most important player and he has been their most important player through this run you know steph and clay they are the mvps right they get the points and everything else but this team does not have the success or win without those four categories his leadership his rebounding his assisting and also his defense that's draymond green seals the game 121 106 the final as the golden state warriors have pushed this now uh to a game six this is anthony davis exiting the arena no wheelchair anymore it looks like he's okay again and chris haynes reporting that anthony davis has avoided a concussion according to his sources you see him walk out of the arena right there so it looks like it's good news for the los angeles lakers but when you look at this team i mean this was a missed opportunity for this lakers to close out this series move on and now you've kind of given the warriors life and from hearing them in those in that press conference from players coaches all alike i feel pretty confident seems like yeah and but you uh again that the warriors did their job they they protected home court and the lakers have done their job in this series right they came and stole one earlier then they won two at home and you know even though they had a chance to to win the night you know it's highly unlikely that you're going to come and beat golden state you know four straight times two in their building so this is kind of playing out the way it's supposed to lakers has a chance to win at home yeah it is i mean lakers just put a lot of pressure on the golden state warriors um it's a must win obviously if we rested away for the golden state warriors but lakers didn't win this one but they have another chance to close out in game six by chance they don't do that they'll get one more chance yeah but that game seven that'd be a little shaky for anybody uh usually give the edge to the home team and then i think for the lakers it's just you lost this game but you want to see how ad feels will he be able to play and you hopefully can get that news early whether he's playing or not then you can just move on with your game plan yeah that that's really his health is such a big storyline going into that game right because for the lakers if he's not close to 100 that affects so many different things for this team i mean from the start of this series everyone has said you know the lakers goals as ad goes right and if he's healthy and playing well they got a chance to win if he's not you know then you know their chances are slim regardless of how well lebron james plays right everything right now is focused and centered around can ad perform and how well will he perform no doubt about it again steph curry saying after the game he said listen the pressure is now on the lakers we protected our home court so the mental game started to kick into uh steph curry 27 points helping extend this series to uh six
