After Action Report
The Spurs took care of the Lakers 122-107. The breakneck pace played right into Spurs' hands. The Spurs answered the bell with a bounce-back effort; Lakers' shot-blockers turned the paint into a no-fly zone. The Lakers rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night.
