After Action Report
The Lakers ran roughshod over the Clippers 123-89. The Clippers had no answer for the variance gods tonight. Lakers' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; the Lakers answered the bell with a bounce-back effort. The Lakers locker room is humming, and it showed. Lakers' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. Never a doubt in this one.
What tipped it
- Lakers · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Lakers · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
- Lakers · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
- Clippers · Heartbreak A gutting last-second loss — revenge is on the menu.
