After Action Report

The Warriors downed the Lakers 111-100. Warriors torched the Lakers on the offensive end. Warriors' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; the Warriors owned the glass, generating extra possessions. Warriors' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
