Bron promptly answered that it is the defense, that is doing its job and is the key factor out there. ?At the end of the day, if we still wanna win ball games, we still gotta defend,??he said.

Bron was also asked how he felt about missing out on the fourth quarter. To this, the King answered that he was okay with any rotations in the team. He went on to add that he is comfortable participating in whichever minutes his team wants to don him on the court. It seems like Bron is okay with the rotational theory implemented by coach Darvin Ham at the beginning of the championship.

The Young Players making the difference

King James feels that it is the young players, who are making the difference in the team. He said, “I think it’s great to see the young guys go out and close the game, I love that.”?He specifically mentions Max Christie, Austin Reaves, and Christian Wood’s names. Indeed they add great value to the Lakers squad.

The younger players seem to be collaborating well with the stars and some bigger names and that seems to be doing the trick for the Lakers. It is time that they should step up, as LeBron James is going to be 39 soon. And AD is injured-prone as we all know. It would be a key factor for their team going forward in the championship.
