AD hit crucial threes in that 4th too, those were important shots, matter fact they were the biggest shots for the Lakers IMO

[@cbailey3728]

He stepped it up in the 4th for sure, but if you watched the game instead of the box score, his shooting until that point was horrible and a big reason for the deficit. He still finished at 39% from 2, with most of those misses being by the rim (his mid-range was ok).
