After Action Report
The Lakers rolled past the Pacers 144-117. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Lakers cashed in. Lakers' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; second-chance points piled up for the Lakers. One bad quarter was all it took to crack this one open.
What tipped it
- Lakers · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Lakers · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
- Lakers · Superstar Stack Two or more 90-overall stars bend games to their will on both ends.
- Lakers · Statement Win Last time out, a 20+ point beating sent a message.
- Pacers · Catching Fire Riding a 4+ game winning streak — confidence is high.
