After Action Report
The Suns ran roughshod over the Lakers 113-87. Execution down the stretch made the difference. Suns' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; Suns' outside barrage was a constant threat. Suns' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. One bad quarter was all it took to crack this one open.
What tipped it
- Lakers · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
- Suns · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
