After Action Report

The Lakers outlasted the Clippers 113-105. Execution down the stretch made the difference. The Lakers carried the confidence of a hot streak right into this one; Clippers' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition. The Lakers bench chemistry carried them. Early returns: the Lakers per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight.
