After Action Report
In a track meet, the Lakers ran roughshod over the Hornets 128-99. Lakers torched the Hornets on the offensive end. Lakers' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; Lakers' old heads steadied the ship in the swings. One bad quarter was all it took to crack this one open.
What tipped it
