After Action Report

In Los Angeles, the Lakers buried the Jazz 123-98. The breakneck pace played right into Lakers' hands. Lakers' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; the Jazz played with the chip of a recent gutting loss. The Lakers locker room is humming, and it showed. Garbage time started early.

What tipped it

  • Lakers · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
  • Lakers · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
  • Jazz · Heartbreak A gutting last-second loss — revenge is on the menu.
