The Golden State Warriors lost to the Los Angeles Lakers 145-144 in an epic double overtime affair. It was a wildly entertaining basketball game that showcased the greatness of Steph Curry and LeBron James, alongside the many flaws of the teams that currently surround them. And as has been the case many times this season, the Warriors finished on the short end of the story. They are now 19-24 and are closer to falling to the 13th seed in the Western Conference than they are to the final play-in spot.
After a back-and-fourth first half, the Warriors started the third quarter strong and built a 15-point lead.
