After Action Report
The Lakers squeaked past the Magic 104-99. The Lakers got every break — every loose ball, every bounce. The Lakers are in a full-on tailspin; Lakers' Lockdown identity stifled the opposing offense.
What tipped it
- Lakers · Crashing An 8+ game losing skid — heads are down, both ends suffer.
- Lakers · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
- Magic · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
- Magic · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
