Lakers x Warriors: check schedule, where to watch and Game 4 preview

In a Californian duel valid for one of the semifinals of the Western Conference of the NBA, the Los Angeles Lakers receive the Golden State Warriors on the night of this Monday (8), at 23h (Brasília time), at Crypto.com Arena. The match will be broadcast live and exclusively on Amazon Prime Video (streaming) for Brazil.

Today’s game will be the fourth in a series that will have at least two more clashes. Leading 2-1, the Lakers are looking to increase their advantage in the match and stay one victory away from advancing to the conference finals, a feat they achieved in 2020 – that year, they became NBA champions, beating the Miami Heat in the finals by 4-2 .

Meanwhile, the Warriors are trying to regain their home court advantage, which was earned by having done better than the Lakers in the regular season. After losing in the debut, at home, the San Francisco team won game 2 and was defeated again in the last match, in Los Angeles.

In last Saturday’s duel (6), the Lakers won by 30 points and had another great performance by Anthony Davis, who recorded a double-double with 25 points and 13 assists. In addition to the pivot, playmaker LeBron James and D’Angelo Russell, both with 21 points, also collaborated.

On the Warriors side, Stephen Curry was the team’s top scorer with 23 points and Andrew Wiggins scored another 16, but the low use in field shots (39.6%) and three-pointers (29.5%) prevented the team coached by Steve Kerr won.
