After Action Report
In a track meet, the Lakers buried the Kings 121-79. The Lakers got every break — every loose ball, every bounce. Lakers' old heads steadied the ship in the swings; second-chance points piled up for the Kings. Tonight's Kings utilization choices clashed with the team identity. The second half turned a coin-flip into a runaway.
