After Action Report
The Suns ran roughshod over the Lakers 121-98. The Lakers had no answer for the variance gods tonight. The Suns couldn't shake the cold spell; Lakers' veteran poise eliminated the costly mistakes. The Lakers looked disjointed — chemistry issues linger. Never a doubt in this one.
What tipped it
- Suns · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
- Lakers · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
