After Action Report
In a track meet, the Wizards rolled past the Lakers 135-108. The breakneck pace played right into Wizards' hands. The Wizards owned the glass, generating extra possessions; Lakers' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim. One bad quarter was all it took to crack this one open.
What tipped it
- Lakers · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Lakers · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
- Wizards · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
