After Action Report

The Lakers rolled past the Celtics 122-101. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Lakers cashed in. Lakers' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; the Lakers ride keeps rolling — they're catching fire. The Lakers locker room is humming, and it showed. One bad quarter was all it took to crack this one open.
