LeBron James and Co. want to build on playoff series lead against ‘dangerous team’
The Los Angeles Lakers expected a furious, final push by Stephen Curry, Draymond Green, Klay Thompson and the defending NBA champions. Golden State can score in bunches in literally no time at all.
“We just locked in for 48 minutes from the start to the finish,” D’Angelo Russell said. “That team’s dangerous. They shoot a lot of threes, a lot of threes can get you back in the game when you’re down by a few possessions. Knowing that they can explode at any time and get themselves back within one point or a one-possession game, whatever it may be, knowing that, every possession matters.”
Finding an answer to Davis will be one of Golden State’s most important tasks after he dominated on both ends of the floor with 30 points, 23 rebounds, five assists and four blocked shots. He made 9 of his first 10 field goals and finished 11 for 19.
