After Action Report
The Lakers rolled past the Mavericks 122-88. The Mavericks had no answer for the variance gods tonight. Lakers' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; Lakers' shot-blockers turned the paint into a no-fly zone. The Lakers locker room is humming, and it showed. Never a doubt in this one.
