The Lakers lost Game 5 to a determined Warriors team who was able to score effectively, make a strong push at the end of the first half, and limit the Lakers offense enough to get a comfortable victory. Pete and Darius discuss the Warriors leaning more on Wiggins and Draymond as scorers, the battle between the Lakers guards on offense vs. the Warriors ball pressure defense, and LeBron's importance as a shapeshifting big forward moving into Game 6. Then later, the guys offer their views on refereeing and its impact on the game, and AD's health coming off the hit to the head he took in Game 5.
