After Action Report
In a track meet, the Lakers buried the Spurs 132-100. Lakers controlled the tempo from tip to buzzer. The Lakers played with the chip of a recent gutting loss; Lakers' Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo. One bad quarter was all it took to crack this one open.
What tipped it
- Spurs · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Lakers · Heartbreak A gutting last-second loss — revenge is on the menu.
