Lakers-Warriors

I went to the Lakers-Warriors game on Saturday and two things stood out to me:
  1. Phil Jackson stands around the free throw line for almost the entire length of timeouts. He draws up plays with his assistant coaches and then approaches the team only a 10-15 seconds before the horn sounds. It was in stark contrast to the Warriors coach, he talked to his team throughout the entire timeout. At any point of the timeout, you could see one or more of the Warriors zoning out, looking into the crowd or watching the Jumbotron. However, the entire Lakers team listened to all of Phil's mini 15 second speech.
  2. Shannon Brown can jump out of the building. (See the 0:42 and 1:38 mark of the video below for two great dunks.) On a side note, I do have to agree with this website.
