LA Lakers vs Golden State Warriors Game 2 Predictions

The LA Lakers are in a grove. LeBron James and Anthony Davis almost made it look easy with a game 1 victory. The Golden State Warriors stumbled at home and now face a pivotal game 2. Steph Curry and the Warriors are an impressive home team, but they need to change things up if they hope to even up the series.

Defense…Defense

The Warriors are not a team that is known for defense, but that has to change if they want to win game 2. Draymond Green and Kevon Looney had no answer for Anthony Davis. He dominated all night and Steve Kerr will have to find a way to slow him down if they want to win this game and stay in the series.

Defense…Defense…Part 2

The Lakers showed up on the defensive end of the floor. They held the Warriors to just 40.6 percent shooting and every shot was difficult. The Warriors are invisible in the paint which puts all of the pressure on the snipers from beyond the arc. Although the Warriors shot very well from deep, this puts tremendous pressure on the shooters.

LA Lakers vs Golden State Warriors Game 2 Predictions

This matchup actually favors the Lakers, which is why they are 4-0 ATS in the last four meetings. The Warriors are 2-5 ATS in the next game after scoring more than 100 points in the previous game and they are at a serious disadvantage. Take the points, the Lakers need to put the pressure on Steph so they can win a short series.

Lakers vs Warriors Game 2 Pick: Lakers +5.5
