This game was a battle all night long, and the fourth quarter was arguably one of the most intense ones played this season. The Lakers seemed dead in the water while trailing by 13 points in the third quarter, but they battled it out to take a late lead and win the game.
Stephen Curry had a 31-point triple-double with 14 assists but couldn’t hit late threes to help the Warriors tie the game up. Draymond Green had a costly turnover, while Lonnie Walker IV exploded and made himself the biggest star on the evening. The Lakers lead 3-1 heading back to Chase Center for Game 5.
Can The Warriors Pull Off The Impossible?
A 3-1 series lead has only been overturned 13 times in NBA history. The Warriors are one of the teams to have done it in the past and will hope to add their name for a second time to that list. They also have a blown 3-1 lead, so they know exactly what it takes to maneuver around this situation.
The Lakers have a tendency to start games slowly, and it might harm them if they come out lazy in Game 5. They couldn’t afford to give the Warriors an inch tonight to clinch Game 4, repeating that same effort in Game 5 on the road may be very hard.
The Warriors’ home advantage is also incredibly powerful, so they’ll look to their supporters to give them the energy to pull this off.
