After Action Report
In New York, the Lakers rolled past the Knicks 128-94. The Lakers got every break — every loose ball, every bounce. The Lakers answered the bell with a bounce-back effort; the Knicks carried the swagger of a recent blowout into this one. The Lakers bench chemistry carried them. Lakers' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. It was over by halftime.
