After Action Report

The Lakers stunned the Nets 143-142. The breakneck pace played right into Lakers' hands. Lakers' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; the Lakers answered the bell with a bounce-back effort. Add it to the list of nights the favorite forgot to show up.

What tipped it

  • Lakers · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
  • Lakers · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.

  • Nets · Superstar Stack Two or more 90-overall stars bend games to their will on both ends.
  • Nets · Catching Fire Riding a 4+ game winning streak — confidence is high.
  • Nets · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
