After Action Report
The Lakers fended off the Cavaliers 115-109. Lakers' offense had its way with the Cavaliers. Lakers' Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo; the Cavaliers answered the bell with a bounce-back effort. Cavaliers' per-player workload didn't match the gameplan. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
