After Action Report

The Lakers took care of the Jazz 111-92. The breakneck pace played right into Lakers' hands. The Lakers owned the glass, generating extra possessions; the Lakers carried the swagger of a recent blowout into this one. Lakers' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. Survive-and-advance type win.
