The Lakers return back home to Los Angeles down 0-2 in the Western Conference Finals. It certainly hasn’t been an ideal start to the series for the Purple and Gold, but at the very least, they return back to comfortable territory where they will get a chance to even up the series.
The Lakers’ script to success this postseason has been: To steal home-court advantage by winning at least one of the first two games on the road and then winning out at home. They didn’t get to do that in Denver but that doesn’t mean they can’t rewrite the script.
