A.

D just mentioned that your guys film session was where you, you know, noticed some of the things and clear, obvious ways that you could improve from the first game.

How did that correlate to the offense specifically tonight, just how crisp it was and how efficient both the starters on the bench were.

I mean, we could crack 40 assists.

We worry I'm or home.

We are so careless with some our turnovers lesson that second quarter.

But the way we're moving the ball, the way we were sharing the ball and just keeping everybody involved, keeping that body feeling very comfortable, inoffensive and just comes from, you know, the film, like you said, Wei died into the Alaska place and he's any specific thoughts on just trez intruder and the way that they're able to create offense like tonight and on a night where you and a D still do your typical efficient scoring, albeit in fewer minutes.

Yeah, I mean, I mean, that's what we have.

Before we saw what they were able to do last year, both of their respective teams last year, Um, you know, on their ability to score their ability to be efficient as well.

Just asked to our firepower that we have.

So, um, you know, it was it was great to see that tonight.

They both felt it seemed more comfortable with what we wanted to do.

What?

We want the comments offensively.

And, you know, it was Big 14, Dave, about Merry Christmas.

I got to for you, if I could One.

One of the notable Christmas Day moments of your career is playing in Staples Center on the heat catching alley oop off the glass from Dwyane Wade.

Tonight you were the guy throwing value Teoh a d uh, you talk about the parallel of those moments.

Um, you know, obviously descending is a lot different.

You know, being the staple center for Christmas is justice.

Some believe we feel that we had, um actually what?

The Clippers with our fans here, you know, and just rejoicing and excitement from our fans being part of a beautiful Christmas day.

But being able thio have the correlation of catching laws should be weighed in the past.

And then we being able to switch it off in the Oval Office eighties like tonight.

Um, it was definitely blessing and a quick second if I could.

You told us that why would be part of your rehab process to get that ankle right?

Is there any side effects of the line of affecting that three free throw in the third quarter Or what happened then?

No, I told you the other night.

When I drink, wine goes from straight down to the left side of my body.

Tonight I shut the free throw right hand, so that did not have had side effects.

So I'm gonna see if I could drink some wine.

If I could shoot it down to the right side of my body, maybe they'll help my free throw.

I won't give me a little bit more strength.

So where it doesn't hit absolutely nothing.

So we'll see what happens.

Maybe I need to drink upside down tonight.

Maybe backfire style.

Who is it?

Pick, Uh, Dan LeBron.

It's a bottle in both hand is usually what works.

That's typically just from my experience.

Um, I'm curious.

Obviously, you guys had a really clear identity.

Um, last year and the formula was pretty laid out for how you would win.

Um, how willing and open you have to be for that formula to be changed when the parts changed, Like the way they did this year, and or is it gonna be?

Is it the same formula?

Thank formula.

I mean, our former last year was to defend on the high level rebound that an awesome officer van share the ball way had two heavy hitters that we knew that it could make, uh, no big time shots, big time moments.

But we also had complimented guys that we knew that we could get them.

The opportunities, as you guys say in the postseason, uh, you know, So it's the second we have two heavy hitters, myself and a d.

We also got some e I mean, some also, some guys that could just do some great things askew saying tonight, Trays Schroeder cause Never forget about Casey because he's has the ability to go off.

Well, that's just that's just the name refuse.

So we know what our identity is.

Our teamed up with our identity is, and the ball is gonna be in me and eighties hand for the majority of it all the time, but we have the ability to be able to defer.

Uh, you know, Tonto, and he can run the offense.

You'll be able to defer and get the ball to trends in the low post, do his thing.

Be able to get the ball out of schools and sweet spots as well.

So way.

No, what we are and we will continue to build off Calvin.

Hey, LEBRON.

Merry Christmas.

Um, just sort of following up off of that.

You talk about you know who you are.

And obviously, you know, when you look at the scores you have on this team, you knew the potential.

What's it like to kind of see that score 138 points in a game on You only have to score 22 of that.

Is that so?

Sort of invigorating.

Be in this situation, See it unfold.

That's what the game asked for.

Game addicts for a call for being well balanced.

We have four guys that basically was in the twenties close to it.

Dips had 18 home.

Um, you know, was just moving the ball when I was in a great rhythm.

Trans did a great job officer rebounding.

He also did a great job being posted making shots.

80 was 80.

But I felt Dennis was more aggressive tonight.

Gonna pick and rolls that time we stopped behind that.

Made him out to the leg, got his finish.

He's got his mere range going.

But, you know, we have the ability to where we can have four, maybe even five guys that scoring 20 along with schools at any given night long, we're sharing the ball.

Laws were efficient.

We defended.

So your fancy.

We're gonna take two more.

Melissa Rolla.

LeBron.

Merry Christmas Christmas.

You talk.

You posted about how you woke up and you were so excited to play Christmas night.

What's it like in your 17th season?

Are you just is excited to play on Christmas is you were early on and And what's it like?

How do you feel when you wake up in the morning before this type of the game?

I appreciate you know, this is making me feel a year younger.

Uh, thank you, but I felt great.

I mean, I woke up early this morning.

We all have thio way Have to do our testing or anything.

Be a protocol testing.

So I had to leave the house early to go test about our facility.

And then I came back home and it was a gift with the kids, which was a great moment.

I watched some of the early game that came on that nine.

It was Republicanism, and he don't want a little bit of that.

Once the kids went off and play with their toys, I went back to the room and took me in that it was excited when I woke up.

Thio get down!

The state would get ready to go.

So it has been a very good day.

And now I'm gonna go home and, uh, B double fisted eso I can not airborne free throw, um, and next game.

So that's where it's right.

We'll take one more.

Let's go, David.

And it'll que LeBron Merry Christmas from Italy.

Uh, I'm curious about your level, um off game Coach Vogel is saying that needs your minutes.

Needs to be.

Look at How do you feel?

I think it's a conspiracy in this league about my minutes need to be looked at, and everyone just follows the train.

I'm just I just just listen, whatever coaching the coaching staff, you know, players I'm ready to do whatever coach wants.

Thio limit my minutes earlier in the season.

Um, did you do that If he wants to play me some games where the high man is trying with boiling do that too.

I trained my body for whatever.

I'm not sure.

Typical God, that's in the 18 season.

I try to show you, just show it to you guys over and over and over.

Remember I was in your 13 ever saying the same thing, and then you're 14 limited minutes your 15.

16.

So it was the same story for me, But for me personally, I just trained my body for marathon.

I trained my body for whatever, and, uh, whatever the game or whatever today has a store.

I'm ready for that.

So, Lerner from my mom and learning from O.
