After Action Report
In a track meet, the Lakers buried the Trail Blazers 163-138. The breakneck pace played right into Lakers' hands. Lakers' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; the Lakers played with the chip of a recent gutting loss. The Lakers locker room is humming, and it showed. Lakers' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. Never a doubt in this one.
