After Action Report
The Lakers buried the Suns 113-93. Every possession went the Lakers way. The Suns owned the glass, generating extra possessions; the Suns are in a full-on tailspin. The Suns looked disjointed — chemistry issues linger. The Suns rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night. It was over by halftime.

- Suns · Crashing An 8+ game losing skid — heads are down, both ends suffer.
