JJ Redick is the real deal. The Lakers offense plays with so much movement. So many different levels of their actions. And AD was activated. Similar roster, new process. Redick is the difference.

After the Lakers' 123-116 victory over the Phoenix Suns on Thursday, Anthony Davis praised Redick for holding the team back despite a sizable 48-26 deficit.

“J comes into the group at halftime and just tells us, ‘We’re fine. Calm down. We know what we are doing wrong. fluctuations. Change. We get a good look, just break up; We're not doing that.” “I'm going to get it all back at once,” Davis said after the game Interview. “So of course him not panicking ensured we didn’t panic and we were able to beat them and eventually take the lead.”

Redick, the Lakers' fourth head coach in a decade, helped the Lakers start 2-0 for the first time since the 2010-2011 season, which was led by head coach Phil Jackson and NBA legend Kobe Bryant.

The Lakers will look to extend their perfect start Saturday at home against the Sacramento Kings.
