Analysis: The Golden State Warriors switch to a small lineup on their way to a 127-100 blowout in Game 2 over the Lakers as LeBron James and teammate Anthony Davis sit out for the entire fourth quarter.
. This time, he bounced back from a Game 1 defeat by playing a more traditional point guard role and dissecting the Lakers’ defense with opportunistic passing.
With Looney out of the way, Curry was able to engage multiple defenders near the top of the key in pick and rolls with Green, who alternated between pressuring the rim and making timely passes to open shooters. Green finished with 11 points, 11 rebounds and nine assists, and he held Davis to just 11 points on 11 shots on the other end.
“I took all the same shots I took in Game 1,” Davis said. “I just missed them. We’ll be better [in Game 3]. I’ll be better making those shots.”
