All training camp long, head coach JJ Redick repeated these statements to the team, the media and anyone who would listen. But none of those words reflected the actions the Lakers displayed in their home opener, a 119-109 loss to the Warriors.
The Golden State Warriors started their season in style on Tuesday night. We’ll need a sample size of more than one game, and an opponent better than the LeBron James-less Los Angeles Lakers before we can determine how good the new(ish)-look Dubs are, but they sure aced the first test, and carried over the good vibes of the preseason into the opening night of the year, beating the Lakers 119-109.

Warriors win season opener, Lebron out, Luka scores 40+, Butler makes a zillion FTs
Kinda loved having NBC back doing games again. Though they do need a better place than Peacock to throw games on when another one is running long.
So disappointed NBC Bay Area wasn't playing it
I had forgotten I had peacock access through Xfinity.
Was able to watch Q1 while the other game was going through it's 2OT.
