Breaking Down LA's Offense & Defense

Tom Zayas & Cranjis McBasketball discuss the past 2 weeks from Lakers basketball, including how LA has been consistently declining in their organized vs freelance offense, how that trend negatively impacts their PPP & Offensive Rating, and why it isn't simply because of the trade. Later, they discuss the Lakers recent changes to their defensive scheme & why it's been leading the charge during this win streak, including how they're icing side Pick & Rolls, utilizing a strong side zone against Stars, how Luka has been a successful piece in the scheme, and why DFS, Vando & Gabe help unlock this particular scheme.
