After Action Report
In Houston, the Lakers rolled past the Rockets 130-99. The Rockets had no answer for the variance gods tonight. The Lakers carried the swagger of a recent blowout into this one; the Lakers pushed the pace until the other side broke. The Lakers bench chemistry carried them. Garbage time started early.
