After Action Report
In Los Angeles, the Lakers outlasted the Spurs 125-113. The tempo dragged the Spurs into a rhythm they couldn't survive. Lakers' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; the Lakers bent the defense out of shape from deep. The Lakers locker room is humming, and it showed. Lakers' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles.
