Like a Tiger with Wings! The Lakers Have Become So Strong!

The possession changed.

Curry brought the ball up. He looked to be in great form and took on Paul himself, using his skilled ball handling to shake him off.

A step beyond the three-point line, at the top of the right arc, he launched a three-pointer.

It was a pretty good look.

But it was Paul, the "Hive," one half of the "Diamond Backcourt."

His performance was understandable.

As the game went on, though, the Lakers' players started acting more and
