After Action Report
The Kings upended the Lakers 107-99. Kings' scorers couldn't be contained. Lakers' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; fresh off a statement win, the Lakers stayed locked in. The Kings locker room is humming, and it showed. Lakers' per-player workload didn't match the gameplan. On paper this one shouldn't have been close — basketball had other ideas.
What tipped it
