The Golden State Warriors (160) crushed the Los Angeles Lakers (2 - 12) 111 - 77 on Tuesday to set a league record for the most consecutive wins to start a season. This was a mismatch and blowout on paper and that proved to be the case on the court. The Warriors dominated from start to finish and it's unclear if the Lakers even showed up to the game. This sort of game exemplifies which directions these franchises are going right now and we should give more credit to Golden State rather than belittling the Lakers. The biggest difference in the game was the passing, as the Warriors accumulated 32 assists compared to the Lakers 16. The Lakers came into this game as 18 - point underdogs and it was far worse than that. The Lakers got down by 20 points extremely early and never could bounce - back. This was a mismatch in nearly every facet, as the Warriors are the best offensive team in basketball, while the Lakers are one of the worst defenses. No starter for the Lakers scored over 10 points and that exemplifies the nightmare performance. Kobe Bryant also had another terrible game, as he shot just 1 - for - 14 to accumulate four points in the loss. Bryant is simply taking too many bad shots right now and while he could make those in the past, his legs just simply ca n't handle them anymore. We've never seen him throw up air - balls and wedgies like he did in this game and it's just hard to watch as a basketball fan right now. This is a bad team right now and with an aging veteran who dominates the ball, it's hard to see them get any better. They have a few days off until they face the Portland Trail Blazers on Saturday in their next scheduled game. The Warriors came into this game trying to set a record for most wins to start a season and they achieved it in spectacular fashion. They destroyed a disheartened Lakers team and they appear to be the new Lakers of the past. In this game they had an amazing 32:8 assists - to - turnover ratio and that has been the key all season. Steph Curry played just 30 minutes in this game, but still totaled 24 points and nine assists in the blowout win. This is a scary team right now and the sky is the limit with the way they are currently playing. The Warriors will play the Phoenix Suns on Friday in their next game to try to extend their already record - breaking streak.
