After Action Report
The Lakers snuck past the Grizzlies 100-99. Ugly basketball, but the Lakers did just enough. Grizzlies' old heads steadied the ship in the swings. The Lakers locker room is humming, and it showed. Lakers' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
What tipped it
