After Action Report

In Los Angeles, the Kings blew the doors off the Lakers 143-116. Kings' scorers couldn't be contained. Kings' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; the Lakers owned the glass, generating extra possessions. Kings' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. Garbage time started early.

What tipped it

  • Lakers · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
  • Kings · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
