After Action Report
The Lakers rolled past the Nets 115-86. Every possession went the Lakers way. Second-chance points piled up for the Lakers; the Lakers 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. Garbage time started early.
