After Action Report

In Los Angeles, the Lakers blew the doors off the Bobcats 131-109. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Lakers cashed in. Lakers' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; the Lakers came in with something to prove after a loss. The Lakers locker room is humming, and it showed. The second half turned a coin-flip into a runaway.

What tipped it

  • Bobcats · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
