After Action Report

In Golden State, the Warriors blew the doors off the Lakers 128-103. The breakneck pace played right into Warriors' hands. The Warriors played with the chip of a recent gutting loss; Warriors' outside barrage was a constant threat. The Warriors locker room is humming, and it showed. Lakers' per-player workload didn't match the gameplan. Never a doubt in this one.

What tipped it

  • Warriors · Heartbreak A gutting last-second loss — revenge is on the menu.
  • Warriors · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
  • Lakers · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
  • Lakers · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
