After Action Report
The Lakers handled the Warriors 98-88. Ugly basketball, but the Lakers did just enough. Second-chance points piled up for the Lakers; the Lakers ride keeps rolling — they're catching fire. The Lakers locker room is humming, and it showed. The Warriors rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night. Style points be damned.
