The L.A. Lakers continued to show signs of their potential behind their Big Three with a win over the Bucks in Milwaukee to start six-game road trip.
in Milwaukee on Friday night, the Lakers might actually be in position to quiet their doubters if they can keep up this level of play.
The team has been helped, undeniably, by a softer schedule — three games against San Antonio, opponents playing on the second nights of back-to-back games — but the stretch also includes meetings with the Phoenix Suns and Bucks, with the Lakers looking more than capable. More than anything, the Lakers getting great games from Davis, James and Westbrook at the same time on a big stage has to be most encouraging.
“The thing I’ve seen from him, he’s having fun playing basketball,” Ham said of Westbrook. “You can see the joy in his face. He’s having fun playing basketball and that’s the way it should be.”
