After Action Report

The Kings upended the Lakers 102-85. The Lakers had no answer for the variance gods tonight. Shots just aren't falling for the Kings lately; the Lakers came in with something to prove after a loss. The Lakers looked disjointed — chemistry issues linger. The Lakers rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night. Add it to the list of nights the favorite forgot to show up.

What tipped it

  • Kings · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
  • Kings · 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.
