After Action Report
In Los Angeles, the Lakers held off the Warriors 102-96. The Warriors couldn't capitalize even when shots wouldn't fall for the Lakers. The Warriors owned the glass, generating extra possessions; Warriors' old heads steadied the ship in the swings. The Lakers locker room is humming, and it showed. Warriors' per-player workload didn't match the gameplan. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
What tipped it
- Lakers · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
- Warriors · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
