Game Preview
Game Preview
The first matchup between the Los Angeles Lakers and Golden State Warriors was an incredible one to start the series, ending as a 117-112 thriller. Unfortunately, Game 2 was not that exciting for both fans and analysts. While the Lakers started well in the first 2 quarters, the Warriors absolutely destroyed them in the last 2. Golden State finished the game 127-100 after scoring 84 combined points in the second and third quarters, as the Lakers ran out of gas.
Nevertheless, Los Angeles is ready to host game 3. The Warriors, who finished 33-8 at home during the regular season, will absolutely need a win in Los Angeles, where the Lakers are currently undefeated this postseason. That is a tough feat to accomplish, as the Warriors recorded a 11-30 line on the road during the regular season.
Tip off is set to start at 8:30 pm Eastern Time on May 6th.
Let’s check the latest picks, NBA news, stats and NBA expert picks for Warriors vs Lakers. We’ve plenty of NBA predictions for you to consider.
Anthony Davis had a rough game 2, the star big man demolished the Warriors in Game 1 after recording 30 points and 23 rebounds. Nevertheless, he did not show up for Game 2, scoring 11 points plus only 7 rebounds. Draymond Green is the main reasoning behind the situation, but Davis has previously gone head to head against the defensive specialist with success. However in the postseason, Davis has become incredibly inconsistent, scoring 16 points or less 4 times in the 8 games the Lakers have played in the playoffs.
As for the Warriors, Steve Kerr continued to showcase incredible tactics for Game 2 by starting JaMychal Green over Kevon Looney. This helped Golden State create more space on the floor without pushing Draymond Green to do less screens and move around the corners. JaMychal Green couldn’t really have an impact against Sacramento thanks to their rapid guards, however when placed versus Jarred Vanderbilt in this series, he absolutely felt more comfortable.
This matchup will be extremely close, and it all depends on Darvin Ham’s adaptation on the lineup. Nevertheless, the Lakers at home are a menace.
