After Action Report
The Heat handled the Lakers 111-97. Every possession went the Heat way. Lakers' skid keeps deepening — heads down on both ends. Whispers of a Lakers locker-room rift aren't helping.
What tipped it
- 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.
