Steve Kerr on Shams breaking the GPII starting news: “We have a special correspondent in the organization that shares lineups with Shams, apparently.”
Added that the Warriors’ early emphasis in Game 4 will be defending without fouling. – 8:37 PM

It shouldn’t be relevant — regardless of what you think the punishment should be — but there’s no doubt in my mind that Huggins turning 70 in September and having not made a Sweet 16 since 2018 will make it a lot easier (for a new AD) to move on from him. cbssports.com/college-basket… – 6:17 PM

Steve Kerr calls another timeout in between Lakers free throws (this time it’s after LeBron finally gets on the board with 6:32 left in first half)

Steve Kerr said he won’t reveal GSW’s starters for Game 3 until it’s mandatory (30 minutes prior to tip). With Kevin Looney sick prior to Game 2, they started JaMychal Green next to Draymond, but their smaller lineup was effective, so we’ll see if Kerr sticks with it. – 7:06 PM

With his knees wrapped for recovery maintenance, Anthony Davis sat at his locker stall scrolling through his phone. But he definitely wasn’t looking at Twitter. It’s normal for players to be on their phones browsing social media after a big win. He had just led the Los Angeles Lakers to a 127-97 victory over the Golden State Warriors to take a 2-1 series lead Saturday night. Davis dominated in all facets with game highs of 25 points, 13 rebounds, four blocks and three steals in 33 minutes. “Hell nah, I’m not on social media and it’s been that way for about four months,” Davis told Bleacher Report while at his locker stall. “I don’t know what anybody is saying. Most times it’s just clickbait to draw ratings. I don’t give that s–t any attention.” -via Bleacher Report / May 7, 2023
