After Action Report
The Lakers buried the 76ers 116-82. Lakers' offense had its way with the 76ers. The Lakers played with the chip of a recent gutting loss; Lakers' Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo. Garbage time started early.
What tipped it

- 76ers · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
