After Action Report
The Lakers outlasted the Trail Blazers 98-89. The Trail Blazers couldn't capitalize even when shots wouldn't fall for the Lakers. Second-chance points piled up for the Lakers; Lakers' defenders refused to give up clean looks. Early returns: the Lakers per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
What tipped it
