After Action Report
The Lakers downed the Celtics 109-98. Lakers' offense had its way with the Celtics. The Lakers looked unstoppable — pure Buzzsaw mode; the Celtics came in with something to prove after a loss. The Lakers bench chemistry carried them. Celtics' per-player workload didn't match the gameplan.
