Since the start of the league, the Lakers and Warriors have been evenly matched, so this Saturday night’s game is crucial to watch because it will affect both teams’ seeds. Star guard Stephen Curry had some words for Lakers player D’Angelo Russell after the Warriors defeated them 128-121.
Stephen Curry: “Lead, lead, lead!”
D’Angelo Russell: “Go at his asshole, hell no!” (LeBron sneering at Curry)
Then, following a three-pointer, Curry yelled at DLo, “Get your b*tch a** on the court.”
Curry concluded by asking, “Who are you talking to?” after a conversation between D’Lo and Klay Thompson
Russell didn’t play a lot of court time with Curry, despite the fact that D’Lo and Curry were formerly colleagues when they were both with the Warriors. After signing a sign-and-trade deal that sent Kevin Durant to the Brooklyn Nets, D’Angelo joined the organization. A season and a half later, he was dealt again, this time to the Timberwolves in exchange for Andrew Wiggins.
He was traded by the Wolves to the Lakers last season, and as of late, he has been playing well. He finished with 13 assists and 23 points in this game. He is averaging 3.0 rebounds, 6.3 assists, and 17.9 points.
Curry helped the Warriors secure a crucial victory as Anthony Davis was sidelined for the Lakers. Throughout the game, he scored 31 points. This season, he is averaging 27.0 points, 4.4 rebounds, and 4.9 assists.
Although there is mutual respect between Russell and Curry, this rivalry game is possibly the largest in the West at the moment. Even though the Lakers and Warriors aren’t the best two teams, their matchup will be highly anticipated and hopefully result in some entertaining moments.
