After Action Report

The Lakers pulled away from the Wizards 115-104. The breakneck pace played right into Lakers' hands. Second-chance points piled up for the Lakers; Lakers' Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo. Lakers' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.

What tipped it

  • Lakers · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
  • Wizards · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
