EL SEGUNDO, Calif. -- Los Angeles Lakers coach JJ Redick said Monday was the "best practice we've had in months," as L.A. prepared for Game 2 of its first round series with the Minnesota Timberwolves.
The first-year coach admitted, however, that had the Lakers approached their off days leading up to the playoffs with the same vigor, then maybe they wouldn't have appeared as flat as it did in Saturday's 117-95 Game 1 loss.
"We probably could have done a few more scrimmages," Redick said Monday.
Redick said L.A. used Sunday's film session to review its defense that allowed the Wolves to shoot 21-for-42 on 3-pointers in the series opener.
