Anthony Davis Dominates Phoenix... Was It a Sign of What's Coming In the Playoffs?


Remember Anthony Davis, the guy who was arguably the NBA's best player in last season's playoffs? That was the guy who showed up Sunday at Staples Center as the Lakers thumped the Phoenix Suns, 123-110. 42 points, 12 rebounds, five assists, three steals, three blocks. That, folks, is a full line. And it came on the heels of a nearly-as-impressive performance against Portland Friday, in what was overall an encouraging weekend for the Lakers.


We talk AD and what a potential first round matchup against the Suns might look like.


HOSTS: Andy and Brian Kamenetzky


SEGMENT 1: Why this weekend should give Lakers fans some optimism. Beyond AD's performance (though that's a big part of it) the Lakers came out and played two good games against good teams under difficult circumstances. Yes, they lost in Portland, but the Blazers have played well and needed some nuclear shooting from Dame Lillard to win. Meanwhile, the Lakers had one point guard. Playing with two PGs Sunday, LA laid the wood on an excellent Phoenix team. The Lakers play hard, play defense, and while they won't enter the postseason under optimal circumstances, won't fold up or combust.


SEGMENT 2: What changed for Davis, who dominated both sides of the ball this weekend? Does he owe us money?


SEGMENT 3: Not to be prisoners of the moment, but Sunday's game certainly indicated how the Lakers could be a significant matchup problem for the Suns. Defensively, they can throw some bodies (Bridges, Crowder) at LeBron, but don't have an answer for Davis. And where can they leverage their advantages on the other end?
