After Action Report
In Los Angeles, the Lakers edged the Kings 100-94. Lakers' scorers couldn't be contained. The Lakers bent the defense out of shape from deep; Kings' skid keeps deepening — heads down on both ends. The Kings looked disjointed — chemistry issues linger. The Kings rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
What tipped it
- Kings · Crashing An 8+ game losing skid — heads are down, both ends suffer.
- Kings · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
