After Action Report
The Lakers took care of the Timberwolves 119-106. The breakneck pace played right into Lakers' hands. Lakers' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; the Lakers answered the bell with a bounce-back effort. The Lakers locker room is humming, and it showed. Early returns: the Lakers per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight.
