After Action Report
In a track meet, the Lakers took care of the Suns 111-100. The tempo dragged the Suns into a rhythm they couldn't survive. Second-chance points piled up for the Lakers; the Lakers ride keeps rolling — they're catching fire. The Lakers locker room is humming, and it showed. Tonight's Suns utilization choices clashed with the team identity. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
