Darvin Ham says Anthony Davis sets the tone for Lakers defense

The last 48 hours have been tough for Anthony Davis. After an abysmal performance against the Sacramento Kings, where Davis was absent offensively and embarrassing defensively, he bounced back on Friday.

LeBron James carried the team offensively, especially in the fourth quarter, but it was Davis who was getting the job done for the Lakers on the defensive end.

Like a monster in a horror film, the thought of Davis being around is enough to dissuade many from even attempting a shot at the rim. And for those like Jabari Walker who dared, they were met at the basket by the destroyer of worlds.
