After Action Report

The Spurs blew the doors off the Lakers 131-105. The Lakers had no answer for the variance gods tonight. The Spurs owned the glass, generating extra possessions; Lakers' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim. The Spurs locker room is humming, and it showed. The second half turned a coin-flip into a runaway.
