Game Story

OAKLAND, California (Ticker) -- Jason Richardson's perfect aim 
derailed the Los Angeles Lakers' resurgence.

Richardson made all six of his 3-pointers en route to 26 points
and Earl Boykins came up huge down the stretch as the Golden
State Warriors held on for a 106-102 victory over the Lakers.

Los Angeles struggled through its first 20 games but seemed to
be resurrected by Friday's dramatic 30-point comeback against
Dallas.  After a convincing victory over red-hot Utah, the
Lakers apparently were regaining their championship form, but
faced Richardson on the wrong night.

Richardson made 10-of-17 shots from the floor and tied his
career-high for 3-pointers.  He set a franchise record for most
3-pointers made without a miss.

Gilbert Arenas scored 25 points on 9-of-14 shooting and Antawn
Jamison added 17 as the Warriors defeated the Lakers for just
the sixth time in 29 meetings.

"We are real proud of our basketball team because we came into
tonight's game after losing a tough one to Dallas and the Lakers
come in here hitting on all cylinders," Golden State coach Eric
Musselman said. "This was a great win for us."

Golden State had a 101-92 cushion after Richardson's final
3-pointer with 3:17 remaining.  But Kobe Bryant responded with a
3-pointer for the Lakers and Shaquille O'Neal had an alley-oop
dunk to narrow the lead to four.

Los Angeles' guard Derek Fisher was fouled shooting a 3-pointer
from the right corner with 1:47 to go.  He made all three free
throws to bring the Lakers within 101-100.

Boykins made 1-of-2 free throws 32 seconds later and Robert
Horry missed a 3-pointer at the other end.  The 5-5 Boykins drew
an offensive foul on Fisher with 10 seconds left as the Lakers
wasted a fast-break opportunity.

"It's one of those things where you have to do what you can do
while on the floor," Boykins said. "It is more mental than
anything.  If you believe that you can come off the bench and
create a spark then you will."

Arenas and Boykins each buried a pair of free throws in the
final 9.4 seconds as the Warriors won for the fourth time in six
games.

Boykins finished with 14 points and a season-high eight assists
and Danny Fortson collected a season-high 10 points and 11
rebounds for Golden State.

"Earl has been a guy who energizes us when he comes into the
game and gives Jason and Gilbert some rest," Musselman said.
"Earl is the perfect complement for us with his size and
athleticism."

O'Neal had a season-high 36 points and nine rebounds and Bryant
finished with 19 points and 14 assists for the Lakers, who have
lost 10 of 12 games on the road this season.

"I'm just waiting for us to put out the extra effort," Lakers
coach Phil Jackson said. "I thought there were some loose balls
on the floor that we should've gone after, and it just seemed
like we didn't want to get down and get after the things we have
to get after."

"We played well in spurts tonight," Bryant said. "We came out
and started very well.  In the second quarter, Golden State
gained momentum and we weren't able to fully get it back.  We
did a good job of fighting towards the end, but we weren't able
to get over the hump."

Arenas scored 17 points on 7-of-7 shooting in the first quarter.
But O'Neal and Bryant scored 10 apiece as the Lakers jumped out
a 30-23 advantage.

Los Angeles had a 42-37 edge with five minutes left in the
second before Golden State reeled off nine straight points to
take the lead for good. Richardson buried a 3-pointer with 4:03
left to forge a tie and gave the Warriors the lead for good on a
reverse layup 30 seconds later.
