The Lakers rolled past the Kings 135-110. Lakers' scorers couldn't be contained. Second-chance points piled up for the Lakers; the Lakers came in with something to prove after a loss. The Lakers locker room is humming, and it showed. Tonight's Kings utilization choices clashed with the team identity. One bad quarter was all it took to crack this one open.
