After Action Report
The Lakers demolished the Grizzlies 106-74. Execution down the stretch made the difference. The Lakers came in with something to prove after a loss; Grizzlies' Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo. The Grizzlies rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night. Garbage time started early.
What tipped it
- Lakers · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
- Lakers · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
