Lakers Blitz Warriors In Wire-to-Wire Win
Julius Randle handles the ball against the Golden State Warriors on Nov. 4, 2016.A Golden State team expected by most to steamroll the rest of the league entered Staples Center on Friday and was greeted by a team dressed like the Showtime Lakers.
The current edition of the purple and gold donned some throwback uniforms to honor the 30th anniversary of their 1986-87 championship team, and they played up to that standard by scorching the Warriors, 117-97.
Golden State’s Draymond Green texted Lakers head coach Luke Walton — a former Warriors assistant — before the game, saying he couldn’t sleep for his afternoon nap because he was too excited for what he was going to two to the Lakers.
