After Action Report
The Lakers ran roughshod over the Jazz 153-125. The breakneck pace played right into Lakers' hands. Lakers' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; the Jazz carried the confidence of a hot streak right into this one. The Lakers locker room is humming, and it showed. Tonight's Jazz utilization choices clashed with the team identity. Garbage time started early.
