After Action Report

In San Antonio, the Lakers squeaked past the Spurs 111-106. Lakers' offense had its way with the Spurs. The Lakers answered the bell with a bounce-back effort; Lakers' defenders refused to give up clean looks. Whispers of a Spurs locker-room rift aren't helping.

What tipped it

  • Spurs · Crashing An 8+ game losing skid — heads are down, both ends suffer.
  • Spurs · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
  • Lakers · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
