It kind of sucks to win off a foul like that, but I’ll take it. In an ugly win, the Lakers escape with a 123-119 overtime victory in the bay area. The Lakers tonight, get this, attempted 102 field goals! They shot 45% from the field, hit 12 threes, had 53 boards, 27 assists, but 16 turnovers.
Overall, the offense was inconsistent. Sometimes it was stagnant, other times it had great movement. The key tonight was the defense as the Lakers held the Warriors to only 43% shooting. The Lakers also had 6 players in double figures.
Now, the bests of the night…
Top 3 Laker Performers -

Lakers Smush of the Day (Note: STD denotes the Laker that played the poorest): Vlad Rad played the poorest in my opinion. He did have 10 points, but had 3 ugly turnovers.
Play of the game: Sasha’s overtime three.
What to look for next game: Look for the Lakers to win by 30. Bobcats are in town. Yippee!
