After Action Report
The Lakers held off the Spurs 123-114. The Lakers got every break — every loose ball, every bounce. Lakers' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; the Lakers owned the glass, generating extra possessions. The Spurs rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night.
What tipped it
- Lakers · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Lakers · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
