After Action Report
In Los Angeles, the Lakers demolished the Mavericks 118-98. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Lakers cashed in. Lakers' defenders refused to give up clean looks; the Mavericks came in with something to prove after a loss. The Mavericks rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night. It was over by halftime.
