In a new duel between LeBron James and Stephen Curry, it was Anthony Davis who ate the best with his 36 points and 13 rebounds offering victory to the Lakers on a silver platter.
For a few minutes, we thought we had a great duel between Stephen Curry and LeBron James. It must be said that the Chef started his meeting with eight points in the first act. A semi-hot spell which announced absolutely nothing since the embers lit by the Chef went out immediately.
On the other hand, if there was one who was as hot as an ember, it was Anthony Davis. The pivot who wants to play power forward undertook a workshop to demolish the Warriors racket without Golden State being able to find a solution.
At halftime, AD was already at 18 points and 9 rebounds while the Lakers only had a small point lead.
Returning from the locker room, the Angelinos decide to move up a gear thanks to Max Christie who plants two bombs from the parking lot. To get the Golden State Warriors back on track, we could count on Stephen Curry waking up, but no.
Max Christie back-to-back threes!

The two Warriors carrying Golden State are Andrew Wiggins and Quinten Post. Given the names mentioned, you can imagine that it is not enough to contain the Lakers.
Despite everything, Golden State manages to come back to six points before the last. We then think that the Dubs have the momentumbut Anthony Davis returns to put everyone in their place.
Tonight, he was the boss.

The one who was clearly less the boss in this meeting was Stephen Curry. The double MVP offers an XXL second half of mediocrity at 0 points and 0/8 shooting.

Unsurprisingly, the Lakers won 118-108 and scored a third success in a row behind Anthony Davis’ 36 points and 13 rebounds. L’unibrow was also well accompanied by the 25 units of King James.
