After Action Report

In Los Angeles, the Warriors took care of the Lakers 111-95. Warriors torched the Lakers on the offensive end. The Warriors owned the glass, generating extra possessions; the Warriors came in with something to prove after a loss. Whispers of a Lakers locker-room rift aren't helping.

What tipped it

  • Lakers · Crashing An 8+ game losing skid — heads are down, both ends suffer.
  • Lakers · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
  • Warriors · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
  • Warriors · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
