After Action Report

The Lakers fended off the Spurs 124-118 in overtime. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Lakers cashed in. Shots just aren't falling for the Lakers lately; Spurs' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition. The Lakers bench chemistry carried them.

What tipped it
