Lakers' center Dwight Howard was extremely critical of the aggressive play from the Golden State Warriors' big man David Lee in their matchup on Monday night. Howard was bloodied following a play in which he claimed Lee "got away with."
Lee's tenacious defense along with an impressive 25 points and 10 assists from an injured Stephen Curry sparked the Warriors 109-103 win over Los Angeles. Howard was held to 11 points on 4-of-8 shooting.
"He got away with a shot," Howard told ESPNLA.com. "I will remember this game. I will remember that shot. He said he wasn't trying to do it. You can look at the play and see it for yourself. I will take care of it later."
Howard, who required three stitches for the cut he suffered in the loss, will have little time to wait. The Lakers host Golden State two weeks from Friday, on April 12, in a decisive game that marks the third-to-last regular-season matchup for both teams.
