Part of the NBA trends I wrote about today is increasing on-ball pressure.Lakers did some with Vincent, Goodwin, Vando in regular season but that apart from G2 fell off in the playoffs. Athletes, speed, POA pressure a gap to fill in the offseason👇 https://t.co/nec7A93QEm— Iztok Franko (@iztok_franko) May 9, 2025
Neither could crack the Geniuses rotation so there’s that often ignored factoid. Hard to understand how both fell out of the playoff rotation so quickly and yet we got 5 awful minutes from max Kleber in the close out game. Odd.
