The Los Angeles Lakers fell for the first time this season against Golden State Warriors in a defeat that could be very damaging heading into the playoffs. Luka Doncic had a terrible game, very poor shooting and very poor decision-making overall. This loss could cost the purple and gold dearly. After the game, the Slovenian was self-critical.
Doncic himself
On his performance and that of the team:
"I believe (the Warriors) were playing good defense, and I think we didn't play with enough confidence. That performance for me was unacceptable, and when I play like that, it makes it harder for my team to win."
On his frustration:
"It's always frustrating when you can't help your team, but it's not always about scoring. You can do other things on the court. I try to help in other ways."
On his physical condition (left arm):
"It's fine. It's my left arm. It's fine."
JJ Redick
"It wasn't his night," Redick said when asked about Doncic and the Warriors' efforts to attack him defensively.
Draymond Green
"Jimmy (Butler) did a great job staying in front of him and forcing him into a tough situation," Green said about defending Doncic.
"He drove him right at me. The only real pass he had was to (Jaxson Hayes), and that guy has to shoot a floater or go through my chest to make the layup. I felt comfortable enough to try to make the play. He put the ball there, so worst-case scenario, I foul him, but he's not getting the and-one. It's two free throws, so I took the chance to make a play."
