The Golden State Warriors’ turbulent 2022-23 season finally came to a screeching halt on Friday night, soundly beaten by the Los Angeles Lakers in a Game 6 the defending champions never truly looked like winning.
After a dominant 27-10 opening for the Lakers, a Stephen Curry-led Warrior revival saw them claw back into the game and have their chances across the remainder of the first-half. Yet after a manageable ten-point margin, the second-half was a rather tame end to the Golden State season.
