After Action Report

In a track meet, the Lakers demolished the Trail Blazers 128-108. The Lakers got every break — every loose ball, every bounce. Second-chance points piled up for the Lakers; the Lakers pushed the pace until the other side broke. Lakers' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. Garbage time started early.

What tipped it

  • Lakers · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
  • Trail Blazers · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
  • Trail Blazers · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
