After Action Report
The Lakers pulled away from the Mavericks 110-99. Every possession went the Lakers way. Fresh off a statement win, the Lakers stayed locked in; the Mavericks couldn't shake the cold spell. The Lakers locker room is humming, and it showed. Tonight's Mavericks utilization choices clashed with the team identity. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
