After Action Report
The Kings ran roughshod over the Lakers 129-95. Kings' offense had its way with the Lakers. Kings' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; second-chance points piled up for the Kings. The Lakers looked disjointed — chemistry issues linger. The Lakers rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night. Never a doubt in this one.
What tipped it
- Kings · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Kings · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
- Kings · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
- Lakers · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
- Lakers · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
