Dennis Schröder talks after Los Angeles Lakers beat Oklahoma City Thunder 123-117

As it gets a little handshake from Austin Reeves big game from Austin as well Look like your turn your ankle pretty good in that first half Then he's to go to the back get it taped up and you had a huge second half four points in the first 22 in the second how do you work like that with the ankle and just kind of push through I mean everything for the team, you know, we tried to get to the playoffs and I just tried to help, you know get a win for the team You of course I spent some time here in OKC familiar playing in this building you play with Chris Paul tonight There were certain things that reminded me just getting to the free-throw line Finding ways to get there getting the OKC players to follow you How did you develop that part of your game and how much did Chris have to do with it? I mean shout out to Chris CP3, you know when I played with him I mean we had the sit-downs every time in the evening Talking about just basketball and he helped me a lot with it and he helped Shay Lou do it, you know all the young ins Developed a game and he helped me as well and I'm thinking for that So you guys trailed in that second half, but made a big run especially to get ahead in the fourth quarter You mentioned no ad no LeBron. No D Angelo Russell. How did you guys pull that together and just find a way? Everybody chipping in, you know, everybody's just being competitive playing together no matter what stay together and We pulled out the win and that's the most important last one for you Now you go home you're gonna be there for most of March Dennis Where do you guys feel like you're at despite the uncertainty with LeBron and when he might come back? I mean The goal was from the beginning of the season to make the playoffs and I think everybody in this locker room believes it I believe it 200% and I mean we're gonna make the playoffs Appreciate Dennis
