00:00 the break. Let's go.
00:04 Let's know LeBron James last
00:05 night for the Lakers in their
00:07 opening game following the
00:08 All-Star break. A six-point
00:09 spread in favor of Golden State.
00:11 The Warriors starting to figure
00:13 things out. They had won six of
00:14 their previous seven. Entering
00:16 the break, covering in all six.
00:19 Make that seven of eight.
00:21 Covering in all seven. 128, 110
00:24 the victory behind 32 points
00:26 from Steph Curry last night.
00:27 Golden State again covering is
00:29 inside the Chase Center.
00:31 I'll tell you what's crazy. You
00:32 watch this game too. And again,
00:33 LeBron James did not play, which
00:34 is baffling at its finest here
00:36 where he did play in the All-Star
00:37 games. Like, hey, you know what?
00:38 I'll sit on a monster game here
00:40 just to start the second half
00:41 sprint of this NBA season. But
00:43 let's get over here to Golden
00:44 State, which this is really
00:45 interesting. If you see that
00:46 final score, 128, 110, you
00:48 immediately go to the Splash
00:49 Brothers typically, right? Curry
00:50 obviously still in the starting
00:51 lineup. 32 minutes here scored
00:53 32 points. Exactly what you
00:54 wanted. Six of 13 from three-point
00:56 range. But as we talked about
00:57 Clay Thompson coming off the
00:59 bench in that last performance
01:00 like, man, Clay was really good
01:01 before the break, I believe was
01:02 against the Utah Jazz. He comes
01:04 off the bench again. This one,
01:06 28 minutes, one of nine from the
01:08 floor for three overall points.
01:10 But yet they still won by 18
01:12 points. I know he's going to
01:13 have to settle in because it's a
01:14 completely different mentality
01:16 as being a starter to a guy off
01:17 the bench. But boy, he started
01:19 so well off the bench, like,
01:20 man, they might have found
01:21 something here. Maybe they
01:22 didn't find anything. But the
01:23 good thing about it is even if
01:24 Clay is having bad games, they
01:25 can still be quality opponents,
01:27 which they did last night. Just
01:28 something to keep an eye on.
01:29 Some good cardio out of Clay
01:31 Thompson last night. Best bench
01:33 player for Golden State, Trace
01:35 Jackson Davis, the rookie out of
01:36 Indiana. Eight of ten from the
01:38 floor, 17 big bench points for
01:41 Steve Kerr and company. Golden
01:43 State now two games above 500,
01:45 28 and 26. The Lakers only three
01:48 games above 500. Only a game
01:50 separates those two teams, or
01:52 now a game and a half separates
01:53 those two teams in the Western
01:55 Conference standings. The Dubs
01:56 have a better make playoff price
01:58 currently at minus 122 to see
02:00 the postseason than that of L.A.
02:03 And Golden State's second easiest
02:04 schedule in the Western
02:05 Conference the rest of this
02:07 regular season.
