After Action Report

In Los Angeles, the Lakers survived the Clippers 109-105. Ugly basketball, but the Lakers did just enough. Lakers' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; the Lakers owned the glass, generating extra possessions. The Lakers locker room is humming, and it showed. Style points be damned.

What tipped it

  • Lakers · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
  • Lakers · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
  • Lakers · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
  • Clippers · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
  • Clippers · Heartbreak A gutting last-second loss — revenge is on the menu.
