>> What do you think that not having AD, LeBron, dressed tonight and
00:07
play negatively impacted your team and your compete level?
00:11
Cuz the guys didn't look ready to play at the beginning.
00:14
>> So I think we have to look at two sides to the coin.
00:17
I think it positively impacted them and negatively impacted us.
00:20
So I think it was a combination of both for sure.
00:22
>> How do you think it impacted you guys?
00:25
>> We didn't play as hard as they did.
00:26
They played inspired.
00:27
There was 70 minutes and 35 shots available for multiple guys.
00:31
And the guys on the Lakers team took advantage of it.
00:33
And we just didn't play as hard as they did.
00:35
So I think it's both.
00:37
>> You're right about that.
00:37
>> I mean, they just beat their ass.
00:40
What else can you say about it?
00:41
And we talked about it yesterday.
00:43
We're like, when we went through the games, I said,
00:46
might as well bet on the Lakers because I'm guarantee I'm gonna lose money on this one.
00:50
The Lakers will win, they'll cover.
00:52
Every time they don't play star players, the team covers.
00:56
It's automatic.
00:57
It's every time, not sometimes, it's every time.
