Well as you can see, we have several posts back discussing Kuzma's inconsistency and that is evident in this game 1.
Suns played good defense as well and then Lakers can't stop Devin Booker in this game. Lakers struggle as a team though, Davis, Lebron, Harrell and Drummond can't get things going for them. So we will see how they are going to adjust in game 2. Obviously, the Suns has the momentum, but let's see how CP3 is, let's hope he is ok and can play in this series.
Kuzma played 19 minutes with no points?? Nothing new about there. He's been already playing like that since he joined the team.
Well, it looks like CP3 got the first blood against the defending champs
. I hope that the injury that Paul got in Game 1 will not affect his performance in Game 2.
So, this is a point to be discussed, Kuzma is young and we can see that he is not doing anything to help the team. (I even think Kuzma is being an anchor in Lakers just as Jr Smith or TT was in the Cavs a few seasons ago
) I may have been tough, but I think because of Kuzma's age he could help the team better.
CP3 is being a reference for Suns, he is experienced and even though he is 36 years old, he's an essential player for the team.
Putting Booker and Ayton together, the Suns become more competitive.
But I think that, if LeBron, AD, Drummond and co wake up, there is a good chance the Lakers will beat the Suns in playoffs
I believe the Lakers will win (4-2), even though basketball is a surprise box and anything can happen!
