Klay Thompson leads Warriors to blowout victory over Lakers in must-win Game 2

The Golden State Warriors avoided disaster on Thursday night, defeating the Los Angeles Lakers 127-100 to even the series at 1-1. With the Lakers focused on taking the ball out of Steph Curry’s hands, Klay Thompson stepped up to deliver his best performance of the playoffs.

There was already speculation that the Warriors would remove Kevon Looney from the starting lineup in Game 2 after the Dubs had success late in their Game 1 loss with Draymond Green at the five guarding Lakers star Anthony Davis. With Looney feeling under the weather that decision got made for the coaching staff. But rather than going to Gary Payton II or Jonathan Kuminga, Warriors head coach Steve Kerr surprised everyone by inserting veteran JaMychal Green into the starting five.
