After Action Report
The Lakers blew the doors off the Trail Blazers 111-76. Execution down the stretch made the difference. Fresh off a statement win, the Lakers stayed locked in; Lakers' old heads steadied the ship in the swings. Trail Blazers' per-player workload didn't match the gameplan. Garbage time started early.
