And it was here in December 2021 that [Stephen Curry](http://www.espn.com/nba/player/_/id/3975/stephen-curry) made five 3-pointers to pull within one of matching Ray Allen’s career mark of 2,973. “I think it's one of the greatest records in sports, in general,” he said. It was here in May 2021 that “I just understood my game was needed more on the interior tonight,” James said.

The Pacers were dominating the Lakers for most of Thursday night, but L.A. got out the defibrillator in the fourth quarter to resuscitate this road trip ...

Indy’s shooting went cold, Bron went off, and a couple of calls went their way to secure the win. After a pair of James free throws, an AD runner and a key defensive block by Davis and the Lakers had control of the game. Now the biggest game of the season so far is happening on Saturday against the Pelicans. Pat Bev missed a pair of free throws and suddenly the Pacers had the ball down one with 6.1 seconds left. All season, the Lakers have found ways to lose. LeBron hit a three with over two minutes to go to give the Lakers their first lead of the game and they were very much in it. AD tried to recover on defense, but when a pass was made from the corner to the wing, he took a step forward but refused to contest. LeBron James took a while to ramp up, but was sensational in the fourth and ended the night with 26 points, 7 assists and 7 rebounds. He was forcing bad shots unprompted, turning the ball over and getting rejected near the rim. Only AD was a bright spot, with many putbacks and cleaning up missed shots near the rim. The opening 12 minutes were not ideal for the purple and gold on either end.
