After Action Report
The Lakers blew the doors off the Suns 121-100. Lakers' offense had its way with the Suns. Second-chance points piled up for the Lakers; the Lakers bent the defense out of shape from deep. The Lakers locker room is humming, and it showed. The Suns rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night. The second half turned a coin-flip into a runaway.
