QUOTES/NOTES/TOPICS:
• Andrew Wiggins, day before Game 2 on watching the film: “…just be more forceful, that’s the main thing,.. especially the long rebounds, just stay engaged.”
• On what he needs to do in Game 2 vs LeBron: “Do even more than I did last game. Pressure more, be more aggressive on the offensive side.”
• On what it’s like to guard LeBron in the playoffs: “It’s tough. He’s LeBron… make every shot a tough shot.”
• On if he’s 100%: “Yeah, I feel good.”
• On when he felt good: “Tbh I’m Sacramento (first game)… first bucket.”
• On Anthony Davis: “…gotta be aware he’s a great shot-blocker… still attack and play your game, though.”
• On what he sees from Kuminga: “JK’s always positive. He’s working hard, always wants to learn… young kid… when he does (get his opportunity), I know he’ll make the best of it.”
• On Jordan Poole’s style for this matchup: “I think Jordan’s gonna have a big series… that’s what he’s capable of.”
• On all the off-season work he puts in: “…all the work you put in, in the summer… carries over to the regular season… prepares you for this moment. The playoffs is a different animal… physical… attention to detail.”
• On how he find a playoff rhythm: “…I found my stride as the playoffs went on, but right now I feel good. Every game’s gonna be different… big difference from playing Sac to playing the Lakers.”
• On how they can get to the FT line: “Be more forceful, attacking the basket more, being more aggressive.”
• On what’s different about the playoffs, what he learned last season: “To win is hard…a lot goes into in… attention to detail, how one play, one moment I a game can change the series… physicality… pace slows down.”
• On Looney rebounding: “Shows you how special he is… you would think he’s the tallest guy on the court. He’s a machine… no plays off…”
• On if he’d be surprised if he saw Looney shoot a three: “I wouldn’t complain, he deserves it. If you want one, Big Fella.”
• On if he’s ever seen Looney shoot a 3 before: “Yeah, I’ve seen him take a three before. I don’t remember the result of it (laughs)… Loon can shoot, Loon got touch. Loon’s a do-it-all guy. If he shoots in a game, I’m confident he’ll make it.”
