The Heat led by as much as 13 early in the first quarter but Anthony Davis and the Lakers came back and never took their feet off the gas. They led by 30 points late in the second half and the game was more lopsided than you could guess from the 116-98 score.
Davis shined with 34 points, 9 boards, and 3 blocks while LeBron James was one assistshy of a triple-double. The Lakers were all over the court and dominated both ends of the paint en route to astatement win.
Sadly, the Miami Heat lost Goran Dragic due to a foot injury, while Bam Adebayo and Jimmy Butler also ended pretty banged up, which may seal their fate unless they’re flawless for the rest of the way.
