Following a 22-point loss in Game 1, the Lakers are focused on improving their play ahead of Game 2. Key areas for improvement include scoring over 100 points, enhancing rebounding, and reducing open looks given to opponents. JJ Redick highlighted the importance of organization in their gameplay, emphasizing better spacing, screening, and positioning. Specific adjustments include quick offensive transitions and reducing turnovers below 13. This loss offers a significant opportunity for growth, as identified flaws can be worked on effectively before the next match.
We just have to do a lot of things better. It starts with playing harder and being organized...It's remarkable how many possessions we had three, four guys at half court with 15 on the [shot] clock.
If organization is the motif for Game 2, then Redick just laid the groundwork for what that will look like.
There's set calls you would call after dead balls, free throws and what not. But our early offense stuff, like any team, it's the same s---.
The one positive of playing a game so poorly is that you have plenty of room for improvement.
