After Action Report
The Lakers buried the Timberwolves 132-102. Lakers' scorers couldn't be contained. Lakers' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; the Lakers owned the glass, generating extra possessions. The second half turned a coin-flip into a runaway.
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 · Buzzsaw An 8+ game winning streak — they cannot be stopped (until the league catches up).
- Timberwolves · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
