In Game 1, Golden State launched 28 more 3-pointers and made 15 more of them — and the Lakers won? What? How? And could this start a new trend?
Shai Gilgeous-Alexander and former Laker Russell Westbrook made waves with their dapper ensembles at the Met GalaEspecially after Golden State and Sacramento both showed up for their seven first-round ballgames as the matching up-tempo, 3-point spraying outfits that the Warriors made popular.
Looney: “Definitely an adjustment, totally different styles of play. The Kings offense is very similar to ours. Lakers play a little different.”They won because while the Warriors were dancing and darting around the perimeter – at home from distance but also deterred by Davis, launching 53 3-pointers – they hemorrhaged points at the free-throw line. They had just six free-throw attempts, fewer than Dennis Schroder and Anthony Davis by themselves.
But it isn’t as though either team can switch up its stripes. The Warriors’ 3-point proclivity is part of their DNA, just like those four championships in the past eight seasons are.
