- Luke Walton: "Our defense was the best it’s been all year tonight. Our guys have proven that when they’re backs are against the wall they can step up for a challenge, and they did it tonight. All we talked about pregame was defense. That’s it. Defense. Win or lose, let’s get better." http://www.silverscreenandroll.com/2016/12/1/13804642/la-lakers-luke-walton-defense-stats-analysis-chicago-bulls 171 comments nba
