After Action Report

The Lakers pulled away from the Bobcats 131-116. The tempo dragged the Bobcats into a rhythm they couldn't survive. The Lakers owned the glass, generating extra possessions; Lakers' Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo. The Lakers rotation plan paid off — leaning into the right spots created real lift.
