With LeBron looking as strong as ever and Anthony Davis back, the Lakers took down a depleted Nets team in a game that showed that L.A. still has plenty of hope to turn things around, writes SIChrisMannix
James was brilliant but James has been brilliant, even more so with Davis out. He finished with 33 points, his 18straight game scoring 26 or more. He was good early, when his four points and an assist in the final minute of the first quarter pushed the Lakers to an eight-point lead. He was better late, when back-to-back steals midway through the fourth put the game away.
“And if I am in a position to play this game the way I do, then go out and make the most of it. So stay low and keep firing is the motto I’ve been on … I don’t have an excuse. And I won’t make one.”. We know this because just a month earlier, he wasn’t. Los Angeles was 16–14 when Davis exited the lineup in mid-December, a would-be contender with the NBA’s easiest schedule to that point clinging to the No. 6 seed.
That’s good, because the Lakers’ schedule only gets tougher. A trip to Philadelphia looms on Thursday with a back-to-back in Charlotte the next night before the road trip wraps in Atlanta on Sunday. “The more minutes that we log [together],” said James, “we continue to see how dynamic we can be.”
