00:01Anthony and Chris Webber, David Aldridge is on our sideline.
00:05D.A. take it away.
00:07Rockets coach Mike D'Antoni is the modern-day godfather of pace and space.
00:13His teams in Phoenix popularize small ball,
00:16moving around and pushing the tempo in their seven seconds or less offense.
00:21It's ironic that now his Houston team plays a much slower isolation style of basketball.
00:27Kevin, that shows his flexibility.
00:30And D'Antoni's ability to adapt to his personnel.
00:34Whatever works, David. Thanks.
00:36And now the Lakers starting group.
00:38Green and LeBron at the two and the three.
00:41Up front, it's Kuzma and D.A.
00:43And it's Rondo in at the one.
00:45And for the Rockets.
00:47Harden and Gordon are out on the wings.
00:49Tucker and Capella are up front.
00:51And it's Westbrook in at the points.
00:54Kevin, it was an up-and-down season for the Rockets last year.
00:57I mean, they started out very slow.
00:59And then because of injury.
01:00But it took them a while to get into the playoff picture.
01:04But how about this?
01:04They won their division.
01:06But only nabbed the fourth seed in the playoffs.
01:09So...
01:09Green deciding where to go with it.
01:18Outside, Rondo.
01:22Trying to find Davis.
01:23He's got it now.
01:25Shoots over Capella.
01:27No good off the back of the rim.
01:29And Chris, last year being the fourth seed in the postseason, was trouble for the Rockets.
01:34Yeah, yeah, it was.
01:35Especially, Kevin, when you have to face the Warriors in the second round.
01:38They got bounced out in game six despite the Warriors losing to Red.
01:42And the slow start in the regular season, I think, played a big factor.
01:47Now Rondo, after Eric Gordon's three-pointer that didn't go.
01:50Oh, Kuzma's in position.
01:53Hammers the alley-oop through.
01:55Yeah, and Rondo just working the ball around there.
01:57He loves finding his teammates when they're open in the sweet spots.
02:02Here's Westbrook.
02:03Kicks it out to Harden.
02:05That's good.
02:06And so Westbrook comes up with the assist.
02:08Kick works well there.
02:09Not much resistance from the deep.
02:11It's a lazy effort.
02:13Let's just be honest.
02:14Hoping the shooter misses.
02:15That doesn't constitute defense.
02:18Now here's Green.
02:21Pass to Davis.
02:23It's called in by Clint Capella.
02:26He makes a lot more of those than he misses.
02:28Not sure what threw him off right there.
02:30Westbrook drives in.
02:32Good for the basket.
02:33Starting off one for one with that shot.
02:36Just such a well-rounded offensive player.
02:38He's got a little bit of everything.
02:42Rondo passes to Kuzma.
02:45And that'll be two free throws coming up.
02:47Officials on the call with the foul.
02:51Look, all his scoring talent.
02:53Kyle Kuzma, he wants to be more.
02:56I mean, he's working to round out his game.
02:58Throwing as a defender, a rebounder, and a playmate.
03:01He's off on the first.
03:21C-Web last season, Kuzma making strides as a passer and as a defender.
03:27Oh, yeah.
03:27Kevin, that's because Rajon Rondo got him in the film room.
03:31Rondo!
03:31I mean, he improved his recognition, his rebounding.
03:37Still an area to work on.
03:41He's off on the second.
03:43Coming out of high school, Kuzma was a very raw player.
03:46But his development was fast and furious at the college level.
03:48And he continued to get better once he entered the NBA.
03:51Misses the three.
03:55The Lakers have gone one of three for the field to start this one so far.
03:58And James throws it down.
04:01Mmm, mmm, mmm.
04:03That is ferocious.
04:05You said it.
04:06That was ferocious.
04:10Outside Gordon.
04:18Passes it to Tucker.
04:19The three from Harden.
04:22Bangs home the trifecta.
04:24Harden's got six.
04:25Oh, that's just the confidence Harden has in himself.
04:28I mean, ready to fire as soon as he receives the pass.
04:32James finds Green.
04:37And Kuzma has it in the corner.
04:40Trying to come right back with a three of his own.
04:43But it's no good.
04:45It's up a three.
04:46And Harden gets it to go in on the assist from Westbrook.
04:49And that's now nine points for James Harden.
04:53Lakers trail by seven.
04:58And in his first quarter, about three minutes played.
05:01Here's Davis.
05:02And finished off by Davis.
05:06Just so resourceful as a player.
05:09Davis gets the job done inside in all sorts of ways.
05:13And that's one of them right there.
05:14Crashing the offensive blast.
05:16Getting that second chance puck.
05:17And there it is for him.
05:19And 11 points for James Harden.
05:22Some people have already predicted future MVP.
05:25Is there a surprise name that you think could win that MVP award press down the road?
05:31Oh, I think there are a few surprises.
05:35I mean, we can go young with young guys like Trey Young or Luka Doncic.
05:40We can go with guys that we expect to do it.
05:43Like Anthony Davis, who it just seems like he's just biting at the bit.
05:47There's a few young Celtics.
05:49There's a few young Lakers that in a few years, you never know what they could do.
05:53Especially the ones that are playing with great guys and watching their practice habits, game habits,
05:58stealing their recipes or stealing what they eat before the game and their health-wise.
06:03So, so many guys right now that are going to be in that second tier coming up.
06:07It's going to be fun to watch this role.
06:10Taking it up strong against size.
06:13He does not lack the confidence.
06:16Absolutely not.
06:17In his mind, no one can stop him on that.
06:20No matter the size.
06:22Now, here's Rondo.
06:24He's been patient so far.
06:25Nothing on the scoreboard yet.
06:29Caldwell Pope kicks to James.
06:33The pass to Kuzma.
06:37Outside for Caldwell Pope.
06:40And a miss there on the triple.
06:42Rockets leading by seven.
06:46And stolen by Kuzma.
06:48And here we go.
06:49Fast break.
06:50Kuzma's got it.
06:51And he gets the whistle.
06:53Two free throws coming up.
06:55That's on Clint Capella.
06:57Wow, he's such an active guy.
06:59It's hard to guard Kuzma and not foul him sometimes.
07:01Yeah, and at Utah, Kyle Kuzma restricts more of a traditional power for a role.
07:09Now, the wide open NBA style has unleashed his game.
07:15Two shots.
07:16First one falls for him.
07:28And Chris, really, a combo forward game for Kuzma.
07:31He's comfortable playing small forward as well.
07:34Well, defensively, I think he's better on the wing.
07:36I mean, think about this.
07:37In high school, he was only 5'9 as a freshman.
07:40Man, did he grow.
07:41He has experience on the perimeter.
07:43Here's what the Lakers are going with right now.
07:46DeMarcus Cousins is checked in for Anthony Davis.
07:48Troy Daniels comes in for LeBron.
07:51And Cook subbed in for Rajon Rondo.
07:55Harden dishes to Capella.
08:011.22 left in the first.
08:04Pass to House.
08:05Pass.
08:05It is now to Capella.
08:11And stolen by Kuzma.
08:14To the paint.
08:15Here's Caldwell-Pope.
08:17Marvelous lead pass.
08:18And he throws it down.
08:20Nice.
08:21And you can't forget about the bunnies on Caldwell-Pope.
08:23I mean, this guy is definitely looking to slam it down whenever he gets an opportunity.
08:29Now, here is Harden.
08:31He's got 13.
08:32And the turnover again by Houston.
08:35I mean, come on, fellas.
08:36Keep your head in the game.
08:37I mean, that pass should have been basic.
08:39Los Angeles making a switch here.
08:41McGee's checked in.
08:45And here's Cousins.
08:46He'll bring it up for Los Angeles.
08:48It's a three-point game.
08:52Caldwell-Pope right side.
08:55Back to Cook.
08:59Pass to Daniels.
09:00Pass to Daniels.
09:02Shot.
09:03High post.
09:04And he sinks that one in the back of the rim on the way in.
09:07Great work to find the space to get off the open jump.
09:11He's going to work hard for this.
09:12To the inside.
09:14And stolen by Cousins.
09:16Five-second differential between the shot clock and the game clock.
09:19Here's Cook.
09:20And he drops in the way up off the glass.
09:22You've got to love his hustle.
09:24Leaving the defense.
09:25No time to react.
09:27And how about then not settling?
09:29I mean, instead of being lazy with the shot selection, they go right to the rim.
09:33Green, no luck.
09:40Back to Cousins.
09:41Here's Cook.
09:48Got to admire the speed of heart.
09:49I mean, he looks locked in on defense, especially with how he can test these shots.
09:54And so, both teams trading buckets as we end the first quarter.
09:58Lakers ahead.
09:59Ending the first quarter on a 12-4 run.
10:02We'll be back shortly, live from Houston, Texas.
10:15A unique upbringing for Clint Capella.
10:18Spent years in a welfare orphanage in Switzerland.
10:21He said he never imagined he'd come this far.
10:23Even as a kid, I wasn't even dreaming about that far.
10:29I would say that's even past my dreams.
10:31I mean, now I'm just living the moment, trying to work hard, as hard as I can, and just enjoy the present.
10:38Enjoy the present.
10:40Just an inspiring story, Greg.
10:42It gives you perspective on why you should be grateful for everything you have.
10:46But, Kevin, without a doubt, Capella's upbringing helped shape him.
10:51And the hard work he continues to put in is really admirable.
10:58Some good action already in this one, but a fairly even matchup after the first quarter of play.
11:03And taking a look at Los Angeles' performance here, what have they been doing or not doing?
11:08In that first quarter, they were intent on just pounding the ball down low.
11:13Old-school approach.
11:14I mean, if you have a favorable matchup aside, just keep pounding it in there.
11:18We've got Harden.
11:20He's out there with Austin Rivers.
11:22Breen is out there with Clint Capella in its house and at the power forward.
11:26That's the five for Houston right now.
11:28The D hanging tough and stopping what would normally have been easy later.
11:34And for the Lakers, six straight seasons outside the playoffs.
11:38Can you believe it's the worst record in the NBA over that span?
11:42I mean, for the league's premier franchise, it's not what they're accustomed to.
11:47McGee trying to break free.
11:48And Capella sends it back.
11:51The high-post shot.
11:53Green, no luck.
11:55Lakers trail by three.
11:57It lobs up the alley-oop pass.
11:59And the slam dunk by McGee.
12:01And you see why McGee's teammates lob it up his way?
12:04Because they know he can go up and get it.
12:08And the Lakers have an illustrious pass, Chris, but they can't rest on their laurel.
12:13Yeah, you're right, Kev.
12:14Teams around the league are getting more advanced with their scouting.
12:17The Lakers taking steps to ensure they remain on the cutting edge.
12:20And now the first timeout called here for the Rockets.
12:36So for the Rockets, P.J. Tucker, he's checked in for Clint Capella.
12:40Gordon comes in for green.
12:42And it's Russell Westbrook in for James Harden.
12:45Now here's Westbrook.
12:46Just about a minute and a half has gone by here in the second.
12:54Offensive rebound.
12:55The Lakers trade.
12:58The drive by Cousins.
13:00That one's in.
13:01His first bucket of the game.
13:02He's one for two.
13:03Oh, the body control of Cousins.
13:05Knows how to get hit and still finish off the shot.
13:11Bradley against Gordon.
13:16Outside Westbrook.
13:22Five on the clock.
13:26Over Daniels.
13:28Another miss by Houston.
13:30No, defense.
13:31They just took that possession off.
13:32I mean, they get away with it that time.
13:34But they've got to show some more aggression.
13:36Houston's gone 3-7 tonight from three-point territory.
13:39Here's Westbrook.
13:40And Westbrook throws it down hard.
13:42And you know Westbrook has an outstanding vertical.
13:47Once he gets to the launching pad, rim, beware.
13:50Daniels with it.
13:51He's guarded by Rivers.
13:54Shoots.
13:55That one dropped for his second bucket.
13:57Mark him two for four.
13:59And we've seen several lead changes tonight.
14:01Neither team giving an inch.
14:03Yeah, Greg, it's a seesaw battle.
14:05Both teams are pretty evenly matching.
14:07The score reflects that.
14:09Now here's Westbrook.
14:10He kicks it to Tucker.
14:14Launches a three.
14:16Rebounded by McGee.
14:17And on an open look like that, he's very gifted at making the weak coverage pay.
14:22And if there was ever a definition of a glue guy, Greg, it would be...
14:26He takes a 25-福 on record.
14:29Three.
14:30Six.
14:31I'm supposed to stay.
14:31Two.
14:32Six.
14:40One.
14:42Two.
14:43Three.
14:43Seven.
14:43Four.
14:44Og.
14:44отри.
