EPIC COMEBACK! Lakers came back from 19 down in the 4Q to force 2OT and WIN in Milwaukee 128-124

all right Chris great stuff as Doc Rivers continues to put his imprint on this team took over for the fired Adrien Griffin at the end of January as we get a kick here Lakers catch a break they're going to get it back it was interesting to hear doc Reggie talk about what the process was like overwhelming initially had to get the staff figured out couple of tweaks and then how they were going to play defense put their plant together and uh they're starting to show some signs as they turn the corner also too bringing in different Personnel you know he's not comfortable with Adrien Griffin's whole coaching staff so he had to kind of bring in his guys let other guys go that's again a little uncomfortable as and you know a guy gets his his Walking Papers so if your Doc Rivers coming into a situ like like this you're probably thinking to yourself like what was going on behind the scenes for them to make such a drastic move Reggie almost unprecedented when you consider where they were in the standings as Russell misses a three maybe David blat the only other comparable situation but that's that's traumatic for a team to endure in the middle of a season just 43 games into the year as Portis boy how good has he been tonight 18 Off the Bench and it's a 16-point lead Here Comes Prince but a little bit too cute with it what was was that I don't think that'll get on Darin Ham's good side Lakers trying to make a little push here to begin the fourth quarter but those turnovers become an issue pis trying to shoot over the top of the length of Jackson Hayes got numbers Prince going to fire offensive rebound Hayes puts it down and Crowder picked his it Crowder back door that was a thing of beauty make sure that uh he's going to be as fit as possible with that ankle and foot injury we got the report from Chris at the top the expectation is that he'll play tomorrow night against the Grizzlies boy another errant pass by the Lakers they can need it but they still held on to win that game there's a foul by Bobby poris and play resumes here's Russell against Lillard what a match up between those two Lillard got a hand on clean it's another underrated part of Damen L's defense those quick hands doc mentioned in our conversation with him before the game Lillard the spin doing his dance little too unselfish well can the Lakers make a push here Davis turns over the top of of Portis no haimura this is Russell and Davis is fouled a loose ball foul so keep your eye on Davis and Portis here shot clock at seven Prince the skip to Reeves the spin the shot missed it crowed the rebound underneath and Milwaukee a chance to build on a 17-point lead Lillard around his screen just brilliant 17 now for Damen Lillard bucks trying to restore order as their lead now back to 19 points Prince fires just hasn't been his night toian Prince now three of 10 from the field after that decent start Lillard the driving kick and last Touch by Russell he's missed the first two after Middleton returned as Lillard Miss fires from Deep you're starting to see signs right yeah what better way to get your starting unit back if you're Doc Rivers with what A Little Less Than 3 weeks left in the regular season so now you can start to build that chemistry that flow right now the Bucks currently and I think they're locked in in that number two spot in the East Celtics already clenching the one with three three weeks of the regular season left Middleton tough fadeaway shot as the Bucks begin theight two and 1 half games in front of Cleveland for the number two slot in the East Davis as we take a look at where Milwaukee sits at the top of the East three four and five to be interchangeable the way each of those teams are playing here's Russell that's a three Marquette getting ready for the sweep 16 they'll take on NC State on Friday Brewers getting ready to start opening day of baseball boy looked like Dumbo stepped out of bounds but TBS getting ready to start its to me this is the best time for sports fans you got Mark Madness you got the NBA Playoffs looming Major League Baseball getting ready to start fun time of the year for sports fans weather starting to get warm as Austin Reed oh give it to them well they're going give it to him Tony Brothers says no Basket Middleton got a hand on it shot clock at seven Russell probing extending missed it where that help defensive Lopez just bother shot ad do kumbo underneath good defense from Prince to force a difficult pass and Milwaukee turns it over two backto back turnovers which is very rare for Giannis who's played with such a high level of efficiency as Davis the leaner down to 10 Sparrow down to 10 make it 10 straight for the Lakers and Anthony Davis Now 23 points and 18 rebounds the Lakers have never LED tonight ad kumbo on a pretty pass by Middleton 25 and 13 for Giannis right now another night at the office for the two-time MVP V is Davis from Deep believe that's four games in a row he's limping too Anthony Davis little bit of a Grimace looks like he's favoring his left leg as Davis tries to grit his way through Middleton looking for a seams going to shoot from Deep short now Davis still looks like he's hobbled a little bit the Lakers have never LED tonight they've been down by as many as 19 and they keep on coming Reeves to the cup and a lot of time left here in this game it's a seven-point game as we cross the five-minute Mark Middleton against Den witty pick and roll action adok kumbo offensive foul Anthony Davis still hobbling a little bit to me D'Angelo Russell boy re accelerates goes right through the teeth of the defense but nonetheless still on the floor here boy Damen Lillard way too much on that three this is the closest the Lakers have been since we were 3 minutes into the game it was 6-2 Milwaukee built a 19-point lead But Here Come the Lakers Russell over the top of Middleton and the Lakers with a rare empty trip here in the fourth up the floor this is Beasley on the attack and he lays it in Beasley who finished the second half of last season with the Lakers looking for a foul that never came thought there was a lot of contact on that drive and finish there by Beasley interesting to see how Doc Rivers finishes this game in terms of his rotations down the stretch no ruy on the floor here shot clock at eight rivers to strong rebound l extra feed Middleton got it five straight for the bucks a 0 run here here milwauke Russell backing down Lillard going right at d boy that nearly went how does Doc finish here I think something tells me that game will be on the floor Dumbo misses on a little spin Reeves going to reset to Russell did witty still has not found the stroke for Den witty who's coming off a pretty good game 0 of five from the field for Spencer DWI he only two points scored 26 his High game with the Lakers in their win Sunday against Indiana but as Reggie alluded to it has not been his night Middleton no and a good box out by Davis Anthony Davis with his 20th rebound of the night here he is at the other end Andes at three look at this hobbled and still finding ways to get Buckets 29 and 20 for ad it's a five-point game Lillard's pass deflected Middleton looking for some daylight five to shoot he's going to fire and the Lakers have it and they have numbers if they want them Russell into the corner Davis they needed that they needed that but Anthony Davis is so tired right now and banged up dingham has two timeouts left 90 seconds Middleton just four of 12 tonight guarded by Russell deep J in and out and the door still open for the Lakers I'd call a timeout right here you need to regroup you need a bucket right here Reeves deep shot one possession [Applause] game [Applause] Lillard off to the left and the Lakers can tie or maybe take the lead incredibly Russell to Prince slithers into the paint to the wreck and he's going to have a chance to tie this game Doc Rivers has two timeouts left and here we go we are tied Lillard now to Middleton he'll fire short and the Lakers have it with a chance to take the lead no need for a two for one opportunity here for the Lakers if you're Russell remember we just showed highlights of that tear drop he had Russell inside clean strip adok kumbo 13.2 the inbound two ad dmbo and here we go Damen Lillard just four points in the second half 5 Seconds Lillard ad Dumbo to the wreck Lakers take the foul that they had to give the in batter throws up top yet he's never headed cleanly inbound Reeves clean look boy it nearly went the Hawks coming all the way back wild finish in that game here comes Middleton off glass no adok kumbo is there unable to put it back so the the kumbo with his 16th rebound but the Bucks come up empty on their first trip the like gin ham starting this overtime with ruy trying to get the Lakers some more size but he turns it over adbo three on two Beasley letting some of his exm mates hear about it in front of that Lakers bench usually what happens you turn the basketball over and the team can get out in transition they'll burn you from three 11 of 38 for the bucks Here Comes Reeves on the acceleration and that is a thing of beauty how good has Reeves been tonight 22 points 11 rebounds and nine assists Milwaukee the number two team in the East two and 1 half game lead over Cleveland but getting everything they want from the Lakers that is Lillard Reeves going to fire off Target that time Haim Mora on a stick back and this is why Darin ham reinserted him to start this overtime his size being able to crash the board the Lakers 14- seven since hachim MOA was inserted into the starting lineup in early February Middleton dazzling dime for ad Bo and their offense Reggie is back to begin the overtime triple double for the two-time MVP as we are inside of 3 minutes Davis and that hits every corner of the rim oh my goodness Anthony Davis with his third made three of the evening and we are tied again Lopez offt Target and the Lakers can take their first lead right here did witty one and now it is Lillard this is Beasley the former Laker too much and Reeves clears the Lakers on a night that they are playing without LeBron James trying to end Milwaukee six game home winning streak Reeves out to Davis they'll reset five to shoot Davis got to go he'll fire Lakers stagnant L the pull up here for Lillard Lillard behind the back shadowed by Reeves going to fire deep in the corner missed it Tapped Out Beasley from Deep that's good and we're tied again and that was a controll tap there by Giannis he knew exactly where Beasley was on that tap back Russell against Lillard slithers into the paint sof touch he missed Russell the inbounder throws into Reeves who's one assist away from a triple double near side Haim Mora on the attack and he lays it up and in Lakers retake the lead what a fantastic move by darham you thought they were going to start toring prince in this overtime period he goes with ruy and he's delivering ham pushing all the right buttons Here Comes Beasley on the attack missed it but ad Dumbo a triple double Lillard fires and he's fouled on a three-point shot [Applause] and he's given Milwaukee a one-point lead I don't think he touched rim on any of those three free throws that's high level shooting from one of the best on the planet Den Woody wrap around pass who touched it last Milwaukee Den Woody changes his Lakers team in this kind of a spot Reeves off Target at a late whistle and it's the same call Damen Lillard I would put Prince on Lillard oh they're going with the bigger Spencer Den witty remember blocked his shot March 8th to win that ball game Lillard into the paint Davis got a piece of it loose ball at the Dumbo they work it outside Middleton near Corner Lillard Milwaukee Milwaukee is out of vows and here we go Russell 10 seconds Lakers try to steer one here in Milwaukee Russell against Crowder three seconds and he's fouled and we are tied again oh

tracks it down cortis in tight he missed and then he's blocked by Davis how did he miss initially uh Anthony DAV D that's how he missed into the corner D witty boy errant pass with Davis off balance Beasley boys hit some huge Shots tonight not that time and we're still looking for our first points a double overtime oh there's some nervous Nellies here to start this second overtime the Lakers were
