After Action Report
The Lakers blew the doors off the Rockets 131-109. The Lakers got every break — every loose ball, every bounce. Lakers' outside barrage was a constant threat; Rockets' defenders refused to give up clean looks. The Lakers bench chemistry carried them. Lakers' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. One bad quarter was all it took to crack this one open.
What tipped it
- Lakers · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
