After Action Report

The Suns demolished the Lakers 116-95. The better team simply showed up tonight. Suns' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; the Suns owned the glass, generating extra possessions. The Suns bench chemistry carried them. Suns' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. Garbage time started early.
