After Action Report
The Lakers buried the Spurs 120-92. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Lakers cashed in. Second-chance points piled up for the Lakers; the Lakers came in with something to prove after a loss. The second half turned a coin-flip into a runaway.
What tipped it
- Spurs · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Lakers · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
- Lakers · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
