The Los Angeles Lakers were at full strength and completely dominated the Miami Heat en route to a 124-114 win. Erik Spoelstra’s side made a good job of competing without Goran Dragic or Bam Adebayo but they were clearly overpowered.

Now, Adebayo’s status for the third of the series is still up in the air and the Heat will have to find a way to keep Anthony Davis in check without him, which is obviously easier said than done.
