After Action Report
The Kings stunned the Lakers 120-100. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Kings cashed in. Lakers' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; you could feel the revenge motivation from the Lakers. The Kings locker room is humming, and it showed. Tonight's Lakers utilization choices clashed with the team identity. On paper this one shouldn't have been close — basketball had other ideas.
