Golden State Warriors 101 vs 122 Los Angeles Lakers live online: stats, scores and highlights | NBA Game 6

Update:
The Los Angeles Lakers are headed to the Western Conference Finals after knocking off the defending champion Golden State Warriors in Game 6.

The Los Angeles Lakers are heading to the Western Conference Finals after dethroning the defending champion Golden State Warriors in Game 6 from Crypto.com Arena. LeBron James led the way with 30 points, nine rebounds and nine assists in the 122-101 close out victory on Friday night.

Schroder gets the start

The Warriors, who won just 11 games away from home all regular season needed a win on the road to keep their title defense alive, and were going up against a team who had not lost at Crypto.com Arena all postseason.

Darvin Ham went with a small line up, starting Dennis Schroder instead of Jared Vanderbilt, and it couldn’t have worked out better for the Lakers. LA jumped out to a 17 point lead early in the first quarter after Anthony Davis put up 9 points and 9 rebounds in the opening 12 minutes.

Steph Curry had a slow start but ended the first quarter with 12 points, but everything was a struggle on the offensive end for Curry or the Warriors. Steph was the only Golden State starter in double figures on a night in which the Warriors shot 27.1% from downtown.

Klay goes cold

Curry ended the night with 32 points but shot 4/14 from three point range, and Klay Thompson was ice cold going 3/19 from the field, scoring just 8 points.

LA went wire to wire in the close out win that was LeBron’s 16th straight win in a close out game. The Lakers’ 17 point lead was cut down to four in the second quarter, but that was as close as the Warriors would get to tying the game.

LeBron and Austin Reaves stretched the lead back out to 10 before the half thanks to a Reaves’ half court buzzer beater which swung the momentum in LA’s favor until the finish line.

Lakers vs. Nuggets in WCF

Reaves ended the game with 23, D’Angelo Russell had 19 and Davis finished with 17 and 20 rebounds as the Lakers closed out the Warriors at home. The question in Golden State will turn to the offseason and their ability to bounce back from an early exit. Will they keep their core that won four of the last eight NBA titles or will be there be a shake up in the Bay?

For the Lakers the attention turns to the top seeded Denver Nuggets and Nikola Jokic in the Western Conference Finals. Tip off to Game 1 from Ball Arena is Tuesday at 8:30 pm ET.

LeBron and Steph have been eternal enemies who hold nothing but the upmost respect for each other. LeBron got the better of Steph tonight but both have had their wins and losses in this generation's Bird vs. Magic rivalry.

LeBron with a little showtime in Game 6. He ended the night with 30, 9 and 9 in the Game 6 win. 

as.com

It can't be understated how important each and every one of these players are for Darvin Ham. He has the luxury of being able to count on four or five guys that can take a game over and carry the team to victory.

LeBron has let his team do the heavy lifting for a lot of this series, but in the close out game he scored the most points of any game in this series and took the Lakers on his back.

What a resurgent series it's been for Lonnie Walker who won Game 5 for the Lakers and finished Game 6 with 13.

Hot take alert!

I saw this meme on Twitter the other day and couldn’t help but share it. LeBron James certainly deserves to be in the conversation for best player in the history of the NBA, but this meme does make you think. LeBron has four titles, just like the Golden State Warriors, but the way he has bounced around from team to team only contributes to the argument that the Warriors have been the best team over the last decade. Tonight LeBron has a chance to close out the team that has been a constant pain in his rear end.

Road woes for Warriors

It can not be repeated enough. The Warriors stink on the road, and if they are going to keep their season alive they are going to have to storm into LA and do something that they only did 11 times during the regular season. In the playoffs this is a different team, and when they are up against the ropes the claws come out and Curry tends to have epic games while facing elimination. If, and that’s a big if, the Warriors can get a win tonight, they would go back to the Bay as the favorites to move on to the next round of the playoffs but they have to handle their business tonight in Los Angeles.

AD is OK

Anthony Davis has had his fair share of injuries the length of this season and his career. With a body like he has, he is prone to injuries to his joints and ligaments because of the force that he puts on his ankles and knees with each pivot and cut. The Lakers understand the risks of having them as the anchor of the offense, because he is prone to injury.

Last game it wasn’t an ankle or knee injury that sent him to the sidelines, it was a forearm to the head and let’s just say Shaq was in the TNT studio post game less than impressed with AD’s durability after he had to get wheelchaired to the locker room in the fourth quarter. He has been cleared to play tonight which is great news for the Lakers, who will need him for the entire 48 minutes.

What's Curry got cooking?

Steph Curry has seen it all and done it all before. In the last eight years, he has been the one to show up when the Warriors need him most. He may be 35, but nothing has changed over the last decade and a half. In Game 7 against the Kings he put up 50 to close Sacramento out and keep Golden State’s title defense alive. Last game he had 27 and 8 assists to keep the Warriors alive in this series. What does Chef Curry have in store tonight as he tries to keep his team’s title chances alive from the Crypt.

LeBron on the clock

It’s been kind of strange watching LeBron James in this year’s playoff run. Sure he is still one of the most dominant players in the game, and he can get to the basket at almost anytime he wants, but he is not having to dominate these games for the Lakers to win. In fact, those games in which he has to dominate means the Lakers are struggling because the role players are not making an impact. Tonight he will need his teammates to produce, but in a potential close out game against the team that has been a thorn in his side for his entire career, look for him to have a big night.

Game 5 recap

After losing Game 4 going down 3-1 in the series, the Warriors took a first step in their steep uphill climb to comeback on the Lakes on Wednesday night. The defending champions faced elimination, not for the first time this post season and shot out of the gate thanks to Draymond Green and some hot shooting from downtown. Green had 8 points in the first few minutes, and GS hit 7 threes in the first quarter. LA took a very brief lead in the second quarter thanks to a big first half from Anthony Davis, but he cooled off and ended up getting wheel chaired to the locker room in the fourth quarter.

Steph Curry did what Steph Curry always does when his team needs him. He carried them during a 25-7 run that stretched from the second quarter into the beginning of the third. That would be enough to put the Warriors ahead and keep them ahead. Curry ended the game with 27 and 8 assists while Andrew Wiggins chipped in 25, 7 and 5 assists in the must win game.

We are live from the Crypt

Hello everyone and welcome to LA where the Lakers have a golden opportunity to shut the door on the Warriors dynasty, and they want to take care of business asap before Golden State has a chance to push the series to a seventh and decisive game back in the Bay Area. Golden State has been in elimination games this postseason, even before Game 5 on Wednesday. They have show their championship grit against the Lakers and the Kings before that, but how much more do the defending champs have in the tank?
