After Action Report

The Lakers snuck past the 76ers 110-109 in overtime. The better team simply showed up tonight. The Lakers played with the chip of a recent gutting loss; Lakers' Lockdown identity stifled the opposing offense. The Lakers bench chemistry carried them. Lakers' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles.
