After Action Report
In Los Angeles, the Lakers fended off the Grizzlies 109-100. Lakers' offense had its way with the Grizzlies. The Lakers carried the swagger of a recent blowout into this one; Lakers' Lockdown identity stifled the opposing offense. The Lakers locker room is humming, and it showed. Lakers' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. Style points be damned.
