The Golden State Warriors got one over on LeBron James both statistically and psychologically in the Dubs’ 123-116 win over the Lakers on Thursday. Not only did the victory inch them closer to a higher seed in the Western Conference standings — and remind the rest of the league just how dangerous Golden State can be when everyone’s clicking — it also just seemed to annoy the hell out of the 40-year-old basketball star.

"I've had to go against them when they added Kevin Durant," LeBron said. "Jimmy Butler is great, he adds a toughness to them, he adds a championship-DNA type of guy. It's always the same, they always figure it out, they always add someone that makes them dynamic."

Los Angeles Lakers star LeBron James turned in another strong performance in Thursday's loss to the Golden State Warriors. Finishing with 33 points, five rebounds and nine assists, James converted on 10 of his 15 field goal attempts to give LA a chance against the surging Warriors.
