There are three big questions that will end up deciding Game 2 between the Golden State Warriors and the Los Angeles Lakers in the Western Conference semifinals. 

The Western Conference semifinal series between the Los Angeles Lakers and Golden State Warriors has so much hype surrounding it with LeBron James and Steph Curry going head-to-head as they try to add to their Hall of Fame resumes.

And Game 1 did not disappoint at all as the Lakers emerged victorious taking a 1-0 lead in the series and stealing homecourt advantage for the moment. Game 1 was a back-and-forth affair as the Lakers had their fair share of runs in the second half but the Warriors were able to string together a 14-0 run in the 4th quarter to overcome a double-digit deficit giving them an opportunity at the end, but Jordan Poole’s three-point attempt fell short.

The Lakers gained a tremendous swing in momentum with the victory but they know that they will have to come out and take advantage of that in Game 2.

The Lakers understand that this Warriors team can easily come from behind at any given time and that no lead is safe. However, the Warriors have to make some adjustments of their own if they plan on evening up the series.
