Got the pick right again.. I thought the Lakers were in trouble when the Spurs started strong and built a double-digit lead. But the Spurs are still young and couldn’t hold on, letting the more experienced Lakers stage a comeback. Good for the Lakers though, they needed that win to keep their streak alive and boost their standing, now up to rank 5. Davis was a beast in that game, scored 40 points from 14-26 shooting, looks like they really go dominated in the paint.
The clean start from the Spurs in the first quarter got me worrying too, and eventually, the Lakers found a few stops to start a run and shift the tide of the game.
We ended 1 out of 3 today. Tough break for the Warriors...they should’ve sealed that 4th quarter easily, but they got outscored by 10 points, ending with just a 5-point win. Just another regular day; sometimes you just get unlucky. Still, we’re aiming for consistency, but it’s been hard to lock it down so far.
I also had a bet riding on the Warriors spread and I thought it was already in the bag since they only needed to milk the clock or hit their free throws. It was disgusting how they threw away several possessions and allowed the Grizzlies to score several points like that in the final minute.
