After Action Report
In Los Angeles, the Lakers snuck past the Grizzlies 104-102. Every possession went the Lakers way. The Lakers couldn't shake the cold spell; the Lakers pushed the pace until the other side broke. The Grizzlies rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night.
What tipped it
- Lakers · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
- Lakers · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
- Grizzlies · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
