After Action Report

In Los Angeles, the Warriors outlasted the Lakers 112-103. Execution down the stretch made the difference. The Warriors came in with something to prove after a loss; Lakers' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim. The Warriors bench chemistry carried them. The Lakers rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night.
