Coming off their first loss of the year, on the second night of a back-to-back, and without Luka Dončić and Ziaire Williams, the Lakers bounced back with a good win against the Clippers to move to 4-1 on the season. Pete and Darius discuss the win, diving into Jarred Vanderbilt’s return to the lineup and the defensive energy he brought, how the Clippers defense bottled up Austin Reaves but opened the door for Colin Sexton and Quentin Grimes to find their way offensively, the team’s identity coming together, and much more.
