After Action Report

The Lakers held off the Nets 112-104. The Nets had no answer for the variance gods tonight. Lakers' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; the Nets answered the bell with a bounce-back effort. The Nets rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night.

What tipped it

  • Nets · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
  • Lakers · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
