After Action Report
The Lakers demolished the Kings 126-99. The Lakers got every break — every loose ball, every bounce. Lakers' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; the Lakers answered the bell with a bounce-back effort. The Lakers locker room is humming, and it showed. It was over by halftime.
