      4th quarter.. Focus on Defensive team. Almost 3 minutes...
      Sink in 3s. Quickly.. N back to defense.
      Make them miss..

    Skip Bayless's lack of appreciating first round picks is what gave Detroit the 2nd pick in 2003 to possibly draft Carmelo, Wade or Bosh after they built their contending team for Otis Thorpe in trade years prior. Its also what allowed the Lakers to draft James Worthy in 1982 as the number 1 pick after winning the title. Its also what the Mavericks did to build their contender in the 80s by ripping off Ted Stepien for his first round picks. Know your bball history Bayless. This is why teams are hesitant to trade future first rounders especially an old team like the Lakers that will have to rebuild soon.

    The worst hands in all of basketball is such a blasphemous statement. They are prisoners of the moment. Westbrook used to have one the best body controls in proportion to his explosion when he was in his prime. Watched his entire MVP season. The control he had of the ball and the whole team was amazing. The only reason he lost in the 1st round that year was because everytime he left the floor they made no plays and lost the whole lead. Now he is past his prime, any fan can see it but he is keeps telling himself he can still do it and it's a problem
