After Action Report
In Golden State, the Warriors squeaked past the Lakers 99-98. The Lakers couldn't capitalize even when shots wouldn't fall for the Warriors. The Warriors played with the chip of a recent gutting loss; Lakers' defenders refused to give up clean looks. The Warriors locker room is humming, and it showed. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
