After Action Report
The Lakers edged the Warriors 105-98. Lakers' scorers couldn't be contained. Lakers' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; the Lakers steamroller is in full effect right now. The Lakers bench chemistry carried them. The Lakers rotation plan paid off — leaning into the right spots created real lift. Survive-and-advance type win.
