After Action Report

The Lakers buried the Pacers 133-105. The Lakers got every break — every loose ball, every bounce. Lakers' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; Pacers' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim. The Lakers locker room is humming, and it showed. Pacers' per-player workload didn't match the gameplan. It broke open after the break.

What tipped it

  • Lakers · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
  • Lakers · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
  • Pacers · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
