After Action Report
The Lakers buried the Warriors 122-95. The Warriors had no answer for the variance gods tonight. The Lakers answered the bell with a bounce-back effort; the Lakers bent the defense out of shape from deep. Whispers of a Warriors locker-room rift aren't helping. The Warriors rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night. Never a doubt in this one.
What tipped it
- Warriors · Crashing An 8+ game losing skid — heads are down, both ends suffer.
- Warriors · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
- Lakers · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
