The Lakers handled the Clippers 103-91. The Lakers won despite a cold shooting night — grit beat polish. Clippers' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; second-chance points piled up for the Clippers. The Lakers locker room is humming, and it showed. Lakers' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. Survive-and-advance type win.
