After Action Report
In Los Angeles, the Pistons squeaked past the Lakers 113-109. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Pistons cashed in. Lakers' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; the Lakers carried the swagger of a recent blowout into this one.
What tipped it
- Lakers · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Lakers · Statement Win Last time out, a 20+ point beating sent a message.
- Lakers · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
