All motor & 8 rebounds. Led the team in rebounds & got the 2nd most rebounds overall in the game in just 13 minutes.
Adou Thiero. I’m leaving here with something.
I hope JJ Redick doesn't give those Vando minutes to Jake Laravia. It's time to give Adou Thiero a shot he'll instantly be the best athlete on the floor
The biggest challenge we will see all season starts tomorrow, and it’s going to take everything for us to pull this off 💯

2026:

A lot recency bias w/o context evaluating the OKC Lakers matchup. Let’s rewind this even more to the two matchups last April post Luka trade.
4.6.25 Both teams at full strength Lakers belt the future NBA champ Thunder by 27 on the road.
2 days later Lakers are again winning in OKC (W/O Rui) with them at full strength when a ref ejects Luka in the 3rd for arguing with a fan. Okc capitalized by outshooting a deflated Lakers team by 17 in the 4th to break the game open. And inflate the final score (136-120) of a game the Lakers were in control of before the ejection.
Don’t let Luka be ready at any point bc these teams aren’t as far apart as the current takes suggest.
A body LITERALLY falling apart
