He went full beast mode. I mean these two guys the Lakers true Stars showed up and really gave Lakers the Boost that they needed to carry them through the second half. So I thought that was great to see the stars do what they needed to do in order to help carry this team to a win. Yeah, it was obviously nice to see him back. But those first five shots he put up obviously, he did not have his rhythm. I mean he was kind of way off and then but after about he started cooking like I think in the second quarter and going into the second half like you said he finished with 35 and then I think Dillon Brooks had something to do with LeBron maybe going to be smoked in that game. So, you know, it's really nice to see those guys doing the thing out there for sure Chris.

Russell Westbrook had 41 10 rebounds, eight assists in the wind. That's mean while allowing 149 points. In regulation. In the loss. James Harden did not play careering did Although he didn't like how he played. It seems like every game we play. We're battling just some some things that the game flow could bring you. You know whether it be some calls going your way, whether it be some high scoring quarters. They scored 48 in the fourth quarter. I don't know. Bringing many wins. If we are love 48 points in any quarter, you know, down the stretch. We we had that game. That should have been our so you know, we just look at ourselves in the mirror and and just see what we can correct A Z individuals and as a group, you know, just especially on the effort. I couldn't guard a stick today. Those guys were just going right around me. You know, I was getting frustrated a little bit, but they kept attacking, and that's what good teams doing Good scores to Brooklyn scored 38 points in the fourth quarter. But as Kyrie mentioned, Washington scored 48 Wizards win by three on the Yes network Richard Jefferson with I an eagle. This one is going to sting for a while for Brooklyn. The Nets had this game in their hands down the stretch up by five. Bradley Beal makes that three a steal. Russell Westbrook makes the three and then the Nets still have enough time to maybe get the W. Richard Team a tale of woe, Camero, Mrs Inside and the Nets take a very Tough loss in Washington, D C. Wizards have won four games, two of them against Brooklyn. And look, Let's not understate the whole Russell Westbrook. Kevin Durant just kind of competitiveness. So you know that Russell Westbrook is locked in tonight. He had 41 10 and eight. You know, the those are the old old Russell Westbrook numbers and he still has a ton of fire. But ultimately the Nets are shooting the ball at an amazing rate and you can talk about defense. You could talk about a lot of things, but ultimately if you have 17 turnovers to seven If you're shooting 54%, and you're giving up 50%. Your scoring is going to be negated by. You know your turn over issues and so they have to correct that. But these were you know, some amazing performances by the Brooklyn Nets. Joe Harris. You know, Jeff Green played outstanding tonight. There was just a lot of positive things for the Nets. But ultimately, the turnovers and the lack of defense late really hurt them, And that's the thing we've heard all along. That Brooklyn wouldn't really have to worry about scoring. It's the defense, though that would weaken the concern Sunday. Brooklyn scored 146. It wasn't good enough. SportsCenter all night.

"Welcome to jenny hoops today. We're joined by southeast division expert. Spencer frank hubert down past week of nba action for the hawks. Heat hornets magic and wizards spencer. What do you see from the hawks over the last week. That thing that sticks out to me the most about the hawks right now is the under hunters. Continued high level of play He's the hawk. Second leading scorer behind trae young and he scorned the ball extremely efficient if you look at his stats. Last year is at a ten percent increase in field. Goal percentage watching him throughout the week. I really noticed. Just how versatile of a player he isn't how tough to guard he is due to size I've noticed the hawks have been playing them at the block a little bit when he has a smaller defender on them Posted them up a little bit and just using his size year. Nobody outside of trae average double digits on the perimeter so that's a huge boost with deandre hundred adding that this year and i really think. He's an extremely important piece for the hawks playoff bush. He did leave. Friday's win against the wizards with a knee injury towards the beginning of the game but As of now it's nothing serious as for trae young couple of weeks back. I talk out his scoring slum. He did start to heat back up last week and he continues that this week he shot the three at forty nine percent this week scoring the ball extremely well while also being top tennessee guy in the nba. What's exciting to you. The most about the place so far. I really like how. Well the hawks big men are meshing. The hawks finished at the twenty eighth spot in defense in the league. And this year the top ten in defensive rating and also top three and rebounding and those two big men are the anchor for those those rankings with this era basketball. See a lot of teams trying to go. Small and the hawks are the exact opposite. They're trying to figure out ways to make their big man lineup work while having these to the same time It's it is unique in this era basketball. But i think it's great defensively for the hawks especially in the pick and roll when teams try to pull cling cappella out of the paint and have their big set. Set a screen John collins just right there to clean anything up so they've really packed the paint and tried to avoid damage inside. Sounds like everything's coming together for them. Spans what is the hunt for the playoffs. Look like yeah. This is a team that hasn't made the playoffs in the past three seasons but they currently hold a spot in the east. It is still early in the season but the hawks. There's the surprise team for this year. Moving onto the heat. What's going on with them. And they're fluctuating.

So I'm gonna wait here for a second, and we're gonna have Ryan trace if he talked to him because it's gonna determine if I go on with this segment, or if we go right to John McClane and John McClane is here with us on CBS Sports Radio John Can you just explain to me how this all did go down where? According to my car, a follow car stereo was not recommended by the search firm on the top five, and now it appears that he is going to be the GM of the Texans. Well, First of all, that he's been a target of Downer cow McNair all along. He has Hey, is a there's only there's only three people on the search committee and Cal McNair. Is the one that heads it Jed years from corn Ferry and became president. Jamie rose those of the three on the search committee. They tried darkest Syria in 2019. He had a clause in his contract, he couldn't interview. Patriots side tampering charges. They withdrew it. And so this time comic mayor and Jack used to be the executive vice president. Football ops who's tight with stereo from working for the Patriots with six shares. Yesterday, they floated New England picked him up. Brought him back cares so McNair could get to know him on the flight. They interviewed him today and I got the contract worked out when his agent Bob McNair, Tonight. I've been reporting this all days. Leading candidates expected Irene and they fired him. Now they've got her head coach. So how does Easterby Hey, such a mysterious character to me. I don't know what your relationship is with him. How does he keep on becoming like the most powerful person in this organization? What? He is not not made a decision in this organization. I'm amazed. At the national media. That doesn't know a fence act that doesn't understand what he does here. He's never had the power to make a decision. He worked or Bill O'Brien. Every decision that was made was signed off on by O'Brien. And so then now is the interim GM. The only thing he did was work with the coaching staff and the personnel department to get practice squad players. Sign free agents recommended by them. So it's amazing to me how people think he's got all his power when he's never made a decision now, cause stereos coming in here and like used to be was with O'Brien. He will be his right hand man and handle the things that could stereo doesn't want to do not not personnel. That's good stereos responsibility, just as it was O'Brien's responsibility. So you don't find his rise at all, Just like a little bit peculiar, peculiar? No, because I know exactly what's going on. I know what the situation is there, Zack. I'm not making his up. Remember before they played New England and I did talk shows and pregame TV. I was amazed I had explained to him, guys, you're giving him away too much credit. From what he deserves, based on what he's done here, all behind the scenes, all not making decisions working for other people, and that's a fact. So it's my understanding Last moment. John McClane, You got a minute left in the show. You don't think Josh McDaniels is the next coach? Is it going to be Brian Day ball? Someone else Who do you think right now? I think it could be Brian Day Bali work with stereo. Years, 15 Super Bowls in stereo and six They've interviewed some candidates. I know they really liked Jim Caldwell. They have others many birthplace, Arthur Smith. I hope the interview Robert Sala. So they got a long way to go in there coaching search and went to me. Maybe expect that decision to be made a few weeks or do you think it's It's closer than what people think? Well, if the Titans and the culture blues, which they could they could interview Smith and even below Ybor flows very be enemy. He could go the Super Bowl. So it be awhile. I think they want to get their coach quicker than that. Then they can interview Robert solid anytime, but I don't think they're gonna hard coach and I may be wrong because day ball would have to lose. And I don't think Buffalo's gonna lose this.

The Return of Playoff Rondo
"So Bill Game One against Houston was Rozan rondos first game nearly six months. Can you break down everything that he went through with injuries? Yeah. It was interesting because this is a guy who has been slowly it feels like kind of breaking down as he's gotten older he had two broken fingers on his right hand last year his first year with the Lakers. This year he had a calf injury. He had an aversion fracture in his right ring finger and this is all before we get to March and the shutdown from the pandemic. So the Lakers are off for four months they go to. ORLANDO. Rajon Rondo is with the team their first practice inside the bubble Lakers guard Rajon Rondo has suffered a broken right thumb in. He's expected to return to full basketball activities in six to eight weeks, he's going to undergo surgery to repair the fact fracture this week. So he leaves the bubble has surgery. He's out for another six weeks or so the Lakers have a first round series against the Blazers Rondo, comes back to the bubble and is actually cleared to play for game three against the Portland Trailblazers, he's on the court getting ready. For that Game Rondo was listed as active tonight for the Lakers but was a late scratch with back spasms that happened. So, by the time, we got to game one of the second round against the rockets. There was kind of this sense of porcelain Rondo forget about it what level, but is he just going to be healthy enough to play and be able to stay healthy to make a contribution to this team? What does he had to say about all of these injuries he basically downplayed the injuries and said that these are the sorts of things that are going to frustrate. Anyone was very frustrating injury and step back I'm my career fourteen years have. Everything happens for a reason. Obsolete man says talks we. Still for the moment but the timing of this latest injury, the broken thumb and the back spasms I think particularly frustrating for him because this is a guy whose entire reputation and career is built on playoff performance on being a guy who really ramps it up in the postseason. Early, in his career uses a second your point guard with the Celtics out of Kentucky playing with Kevin Garnett and Ray Allen and Paul. Pierce and he ended up playing an instrumental role. You remember the two thousand, eight finals against the Lakers decisive blowout game. You know he had twenty one points against Kobe Bryant and the Lakers twenty one point seven rebounds eight assists six steals to give the Celtics a championship for that story franchises nearly ovation barrage. You've seen it win Lebron was in Miami. If you remember game three of these conference semi finals Rondo dislocated his elbow. Oh. Wow. Left arm hyper-extended boy. Didn't see it on that I replay certainly. Saw It there. When back to the locker room pop back in came back onto the court to help the Celtics with game. Time is pad. Rajon Rondo expired the crowd rare Boston. We've seen it time and time again in his career in these big moments, it's not superhuman. But when you take a player who is seen as a high level, but not superstar player can a hitting that superstar switch when the playoffs come then obviously a legend starts to grow. And for him did have another injury right when the Lakers were expecting to get him at his best was extremely frustrating. But the timing actually ended up working out he made it back for the second round series against the rockets and as we've seen was really no worse for the wear the Lakers got blown out by the rockets in game one. They're all going to be in a good mood tonight as the Houston Rockets when it one twelve to ninety seven. But after that, they rattled off four straight wins how much credit do you think Rondo deserves further taking that series. So easily I think you could make an argument that without Rajon Rondo certainly that the Lakers wouldn't have off the next four wins, but he was instrumental in games two and three and four also, but specifically games two and three with his performance in the fourth quarter game too. He knocked down a late jump shot to kind of hold off the rockets and what was a close game Rondo two. Point jump shot that's Rajon Rondo with a bucket right there ten points nine assists for Rondo and then engaged three. He was actually the guy who is Lebron James on the bench to start the fourth quarter in what was a close game at the start of that period he either scored or assisted on Lakers I eight possessions of that quarter to help kind of turn what had been another tight close game into a rout for the Lakers. Rondo. He'll three and Rondo hits another one largest laker lead tonight Rondo has. Been Spectacular and a nice Lee for Kuzma. This is sort of how his reputation has been built. But this also is kind of out of line with the way he's played for the Lakers over his first two years. He hasn't been the guy who has come up in the big moments or been clutch. You've seen the decline of a player who's in his mid thirties and has been in the League for fourteen years, but there has always been this belief from the Lakers that when the playoffs come that he. Would step up and have those sort of vintage Rondo performances and so what you saw was sort of this return to form that the Lakers have always promised would be there and you saw not only offensively. But also defensively when Houston started to make runs, it was Rajon Rondo who was picking up James Harden full court and pestering him into turnovers they double team Arden and get a steal and another round of bucket. That's a ten old laker run hard was trying to go behind the back Rondo was right there. In both game two in game three second-half possessions where rondos picking up James Harden. The former MVP of the league, hounding him into a turnover, taking his pocket and going the other way for layup that completely shifted momentum and those both are Lakers win. So when you look at what Rondo did in those two games, I, think you could easily say that the Lakers could have been down two. Oh, two one in the series instead of kind of romping to a five game series victory.
