After Action Report
The Lakers survived the Knicks 109-106. The breakneck pace played right into Lakers' hands. Lakers' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; the Lakers carried the confidence of a hot streak right into this one. The Lakers locker room is humming, and it showed. The Knicks rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night. Survive-and-advance type win.
