LA took down Golden State on the road Saturday.
Los Angeles Lakers head coach Darvin Ham reflected on the successful game plan he and his team had implemented to defeat the mighty Golden State Warriors at the Chase Center on Saturday, 109-103. Even without LeBron James in tow, a lot of the Lakers’ key rotation players, new and old, had big moments in helping LA get a bit closer to a .500 record record this season.
“Just our guys’ communication” was a big reason LA secured a win Saturday, per Ham. “They were out there talking to each other, talking the new guys through some of the actions. At the end of the day, the key is to put the ball in the hands of your best players. We were able to do that, play through A a little bit, Dennis, D’Angelo, all those guys — Rui — had big moments. Us communicating to them and them communicating amongst themselves I think allowed for us to have a rhythm and some consistency.”
“We talked about it before the game, the three words we use: energy, effort and urgency. That’s what we played with tonight against a very, very, very great ball club in Golden State. Championship pedigree through and through… But it’s a huge win, I couldn’t be more proud of my team.”
