JJ Redick supplied some attention-grabbing ideas about his new workforce following the Lakers first couple of pre-season video games.
Redick mixed his love of basketball and Christopher Nolan films to clarify the place the Lakers are in proper now.
“(The Lakers) have a LIMBO charge,” Redick defined. “LIMBO is you’re not crashing and also you’re not getting again. We had been the worst workforce within the league final yr at a LIMBO charge. In a perfect world, all people crashes and we cope with the results of that. So we’ve acquired to form of emphasize that and emphasize staying out of limbo. I imagine that was ‘Inception,’ everyone knows what occurs while you get caught in limbo.”
Redick doesn’t suppose the workforce has been been doing too dangerous a job of getting beauty, now its about making these photographs go in.
“I truly suppose we’ve completed a fairly good job of getting beauty,” Redick stated. “There have been a pair compelled in transition and off of the dribble within the first half. Then there have been a few offensive rebounds within the second half that I assumed possibly we may have saved the ball shifting and acquired a greater shot. However I just like the mindset general to shoot when set, shoot good threes.”
One participant Redick has been quietly impressed by on protection, which isn’t his robust go well with, is Austin Reaves.
“I by no means thought he was a chump defensively, however he competes his ass off on that finish,” Redick stated after the Lakers’ observe Tuesday. “He is aware of what he’s alleged to do. He’s in the appropriate spots. If he’s alleged to veer, he veers. If he’s alleged to be the low man, he’s the low man. If he’s alleged to be on the nail, he’s on the nail. He simply does plenty of actually good issues on the basketball flooring.”
