Anthony Davis is too dominant
It’s pretty scary to think that Anthony Davis is capable of doing this. In 38 minutes, Davis had 42 points, 12 rebounds and 3 steals, while shooting 46.4% from the field.
It got so bad for the Utah Jazz at one point that the only thing they could do to stop Davis was to foul him. Maybe that would work, right? Nope, Davis shot 12/15 from the charity strike.
As dominant as LeBron James can be, Davis has that similar ability in terms of just being able to take control of a game without being stopped. Watching Davis against the Jazz was like watching Shaquille O’ Neal in a way.
There’s no way any team can stop Davis, regardless of who you put against him. The Jazz put last season’s Defensive Player of the Year in Rudy Gobert against Davis. Even Gobert couldn’t contain him whatsoever.
Too big, too fast, too strong, too versatile. Despite Davis being as big and strong as a center, he can move around like a point guard. Out of the many games the Lakers win, you mainly hear about James. This time around, the game ball and attention should go towards Davis, as he was easily the player of the game.
