00:00LA was an ever-so-slight, basically Moneyline pick-em-favorite at home.

00:05The Dubs had other ideas.

00:06Golden State goes into Los Angeles, winning by 7, 123-116,

00:11outright as the slight dog, behind 37 points and 4 made triples from Stephen Curry.

00:18Yeah, both of these teams shot over 43-point shots last night.

00:21So that war of attrition, 45% though, for the Warriors on the road,

00:2519-0-42, about 84% from the free-throw line.

00:28Here's the thing.

00:29Like, I thought the Lakers would be the better team yesterday.

00:31Not because it was like a margin of, oh, we have better players than you,

00:35but just I like the spot for them on their home court and thought they would prevail.

00:38They didn't do that.

00:39So I'm starting, like, trying to reassess, like,

00:41what I'm actually going to get in the playoffs out of the Golden State Warriors

00:44because it is clear, with the addition of Jimmy Butler,

00:46has really changed that team for the better here.

00:48Draymond Green, Steph Curry, like, reinvigorated.

00:50Podjemski now, 28 points last night, added into the starting lineup recently.

00:54I like what I see out of the Warriors.

00:56I just don't know, Ben, how to gauge them moving forward.

00:59Did you see the fourth quarter yesterday, by the way?

01:0039 points for the Lakers, 35 for the Golden State Warriors.

01:03Both of those teams really hitting the gas pedal

01:05after lackluster performances all the way through.

01:07But for myself, again, I'm still in that waiting pattern.

01:10Like, what are the Warriors?

01:12Are they really this good?

01:13Could they do damage in the playoffs?

01:14A veteran-laden team with extra time to rest?

01:17Could they do something?

01:18That's what I'm trying to lay.

01:19But that's a big-time win for the Golden State Warriors,

01:21which I thought the Lakers would win last night.
