On the Warriors podcast with Jeremiah:
#1 It was a night of trying to solve the Golden State Warriors Klay Thompson for the Los Angeles Lakers defense but remained a mystery as Thompson led Golden State in scoring with 30 points.
#2 Thompson’s not so secret weapon was landing those eight 3 pointers which were devastating for the Lakers who lost wide 27 point margin 127-100.
#3 Stephen Curry who scored 50 points last Sunday in game 7 against Sacramento. Curry dropped in 20 points with 12 assists and the Lakers were keyed in on him and Thompson got dished off the ball.
#4 The Warriors set the NBA record for the most three pointers in the first two games of a playoff with 21. It’s the three point shot that hurt the Lakers and they had a tough time stopping that outside shot.
#5 The Lakers LeBron James led the Lakers with 23 points followed by Rui Hachimura who scored 21 but it just wasn’t enough for the Lakers. The Warriors defense also keyed in on Anthony Davis who was held to just 11 points.
