Lakers Hammered by Warriors on Klay Thompson's Magnificent Night

Back to this old format to say the least until November 7. The Lakers go in on back to back games; after a statement opening win against the Clippers, the Lakers traveled to the East Bay and came out real flat. Pau Gasol was the Lakers' top performer scoring 12 points, 7 rebounds, and 3 assists, but that kind of performance was overshadowed by the Warriors' Klay Thompson. Thompson lit it up for the Warriors' opener scoring 38 points on 5-7 shooting beyond the arc as his spectacular performance put the Lakers away early on in the game leading to the final score of 94-125. Steve Blake and Jodie Meeks were the other two Laker starters that joined Pau in double figures with 10 points by Blake and 14 points by Meeks. The bench came out strong again, but not as strong as last night rather flat, I assume most of their points came from garbage time because I was keeping track on the score and they didn't do much this game. Nonetheless, Xavier Henry lead the bench with 14 points, Jordan Farmar chipped in 12 points, and both Chris Kaman and Wesley Johnson chipped in 11 points.

Final Score: @ Golden State 94-125 [L]
