After Action Report
The Warriors blew the doors off the Lakers 109-86. Every possession went the Warriors way. Warriors' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; Warriors' Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo. The Lakers looked disjointed — chemistry issues linger. Never a doubt in this one.
What tipped it
- Warriors · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Lakers · Crashing An 8+ game losing skid — heads are down, both ends suffer.
- Lakers · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
