After Action Report
The Lakers outlasted the Pacers 108-99. Lakers torched the Pacers on the offensive end. Lakers' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; the Lakers played with the chip of a recent gutting loss. The Lakers bench chemistry carried them. Lakers' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. Style points be damned.
What tipped it
- Lakers · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Lakers · Heartbreak A gutting last-second loss — revenge is on the menu.
