After Action Report
The Lakers took care of the Kings 116-101. The Kings had no answer for the variance gods tonight. Fresh off a statement win, the Lakers stayed locked in; the Kings came in with something to prove after a loss. The Lakers locker room is humming, and it showed. Lakers' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles.
