Two teams that began the second round of the NBA playoffs the same way they tipped off the first will duel again Thursday night when the Los Angeles Lakers and Golden State Warriors continue their best-of-seven series in San Francisco.

Riding a big-time performance from Anthony Davis, a productive effort from LeBron James in a complementary role and a scrambling defensive effort on the perimeter, the Lakers stole Game 1 on the road 117-112 on Tuesday night.

The seventh-seeded club did the same thing at second-seeded Memphis in the first round, wrestling away home-court advantage from the Grizzlies with a 128-112 triumph in the series opener. Davis had 22 points, 12 rebounds and seven blocks on that occasion.

One thing Davis didn't do in Game 1 in the first round was play 44 minutes, which he did against the Warriors as a result of never leaving the court in the second half.

Lakers coach Darvin Ham explained afterward the strategy stemmed from a regular season in which Davis played just 56 games and averaged just 34.0 minutes on those nights.
