After Action Report
The Lakers blew the doors off the Warriors 120-91. The Lakers got every break — every loose ball, every bounce. The Lakers owned the glass, generating extra possessions; Lakers' outside barrage was a constant threat. Lakers' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. The second half turned a coin-flip into a runaway.
