After Action Report

The Lakers downed the Celtics 123-105. Lakers' offense had its way with the Celtics. The Lakers carried the swagger of a recent blowout into this one; shots just aren't falling for the Celtics lately. The Celtics looked disjointed — chemistry issues linger.

What tipped it

  • Lakers · Statement Win Last time out, a 20+ point beating sent a message.
  • Celtics · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
  • Celtics · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
