In Los Angeles, the Nets handled the Lakers 118-107. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Nets cashed in. Nets' Lockdown identity stifled the opposing offense; Lakers' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition. The Nets bench chemistry carried them. Nets' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles.
