The Lakers are leading at the first half just by one point after blowing a 20-point lead; the 3-pointers keep been their soft spot

The Los Angeles Lakers need to win against the Golden State Warriors, there is no tomorrow for them, and every game has to be played like they are already in the playoffs if they want to make it to the postseason.

So far, Anthony Davis has scored 24 points, four boards, and two blocks, but the rest of the team could have been more productive, as Jarred Vanderbilt has 4 points, eight boards, and three assists.

Troy Brown Jr. is doing his share with 9 points, 3-5 from 3, being one of the best shooters for the squad, and Austin Reaves has scored 6 points and four assists in the first half. The Lakers are leading by one point, 54-55.

Anthony Davis needs the rest of the team to help him; he can't do everything alone; he needs everyone to step up. Stephen Curry didn't score in the first quarter, but he scored 8 points in the second.

The Lakers' soft spot continues to be their 3-point shooting

The Lakers can't score by 3 points in this game, as they have 4-16 on threes. Only Brown Jr. and Reaves have scored the 3-pointers; still, the team has been leading most of the game, but they have blown a 20-point lead and now are winning just by one point in the first half.
