After Action Report
The Lakers upended the Nets 119-101. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Lakers cashed in. The Lakers bent the defense out of shape from deep; the Nets answered the bell with a bounce-back effort. Add it to the list of nights the favorite forgot to show up.
What tipped it
- Nets · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
- Lakers · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
