NLL Insider - But really, put away the brooms...

by badwolf, updated on Sunday, May 01 2016, 10:30 pm EST



So Greenmig opted for defense and sent Gerald Green to the bench. But this didn't produce desired results as defense got even worse, DRTG for game 2 was 115.2, down from 113.83. Surprisingly they did better on offense, with Lee taking the big bite on offense, scoring 19 on 14 shots, up from zeros across the board in game one.

Klemmelo stuck to his game plan and probably won't make any big changes for his first home game. But there might be a room for improvement. Bogut and Love were rather putrid on offense, going 3-15, only this time Plumlee joined the party with empty 8 minutes. But it doesn't matter as long as his back-court plays at that level. Clarkson and Thompson scored 65, went 5-8 from the line and Clarkson made 13 freebies. Hill and Lee weren't bad, but Lakers still lost 27 points in that match-up.

So what's up next? New profiles? It's obviously more then just a fluke, Kings look in control and we can't say winning two games, rather convincingly, is just a coincidence. We'll probably see Green in the starting five again, you can't play an all star just 12 minutes, specially not one that needs the ball to be effective. Other then that? Maybe a small ball experiment?

Klemmelo warns about putting away the brooms but also feels confident in his team and the match-ups on any given night. Greenmig's comments has been largely absent, we'll probably hear about white noise, dark matter if he manages to tie the series. I'd still put my money on Lakers, the regular season series is a bit much to forget. But who doesn't like the underdog, a 1-8 upset?
