After Action Report

The Kings blew the doors off the Lakers 149-113. Kings' scorers couldn't be contained. Kings' Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo; Lakers' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition. The Kings locker room is humming, and it showed. Kings' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. It was over by halftime.
