After Action Report
The Lakers held off the Warriors 94-86. Lakers controlled the tempo from tip to buzzer. Lakers' old heads steadied the ship in the swings; Warriors' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
What tipped it
- Lakers · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
- Warriors · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
