After Action Report
The Lakers buried the Nets 119-92. Execution down the stretch made the difference. Lakers' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; the Lakers came in with something to prove after a loss. The Lakers locker room is humming, and it showed. The Nets rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night. Garbage time started early.
