Once again the Lakers are in the catbird seat with 3 tries to win one game.
Lakers didn't play well for a lot of this game and barely eked out the W mostly
due to LW4 coming in in Q4 and supplying the O. 5 guys in DFs with AD getting the DD and LBJ 1 RB short. Great job by LW4 coming in Q4 for 15. Still a lot
of poor play in D/RBing/BHing and mediocre O at 45/24% - lucky they were 20-20
in FTs. GS are a bunch of bullies in the paint and LA needs to keep them outa
the paint on both ends. 104-101 Lakers win by 3.
FBP: 5 vs 7; PIP: 46 vs 52; POT: 13 vs 20; SCP: 12 vs 8.

Quarterly Laker scoring leaders/notes (pluses OR/ST/BL; minuses TO/PF/oOR):

Q1 - Poor shooting & 3 TOs has LA up only 1 after 1 - shooting 35% vs 41%;
pluses 3/1/0; minuses 3/0/1. Davis/James 6, Reaves 4. 22-21=+1Q.

Q2 - I've seen at least 2 uncalled GS PFs and Curry acts to get one on Rui -
wake up refs and call the game right - right at the end, Darvin contests a
call with Curry running over AR and it fails - shooting 48% vs 57%; pluses
0/2/0; minuses 6/5/3. Davis 13, James 5, Schroder 4. 27-31=-4Q.

Q3 - Lakers still making all their usual mistakes with poor RBing/D - shooting
48% vs 50%; pluses 2/3/0; minuses 3/6/5. Reaves/James 10, Schroder 6.
28-32=-4Q (77-84=-7).

Q4 - Lakers step up the D and lw4 comes in and supplies the O and Lakers get
the W in the last few seconds after being behind with 2m to go despite 5
more TOs - shooting 53% vs 35%; pluses 3/2/1; minuses 5/4/1. Walker 15,
James 6, Reaves 4. 27-17=+10Q.

H1 - GS out-playing LA with better shooting - Laker D is sloppy at best and O is
not aggressive enough - shooting 41% vs 49%; pluses 3/3/0; minuses 6/5/3.
Davis 19, James 11, Reaves 7. 49-52=-3H.

H2 - Lakers got enough O/D in H2 to pull off the late W - shooting 50% vs 44%;
pluses 5/5/1; minuses 8/10/6. 55-49=+6H.

FG - Not a pretty game - looked like LA wasn't in it on either end for much of
the game - shooting 45% vs 47%; pluses 8/8/1; minuses 14/15/9. 104-101=+3G.
