Description: Kevin Durant returned for the Rockets, but it was the Lakers who prevailed in Game 2 by locking in defensively and getting big scoring nights from Marcus Smart, Luke Kennard, and LeBron James. Pete and Darius dive into how Smart and Kennard broke through on offense, the Lakers defensive effort and the double teams that forced Durant to turn the ball over, LeBron James’ ongoing brilliance, and much more.
