After Action Report
The Lakers upended the Clippers 126-109. Lakers controlled the tempo from tip to buzzer. Second-chance points piled up for the Lakers; Lakers' Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo. Early returns: the Lakers per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight. Add it to the list of nights the favorite forgot to show up.
What tipped it
- Lakers · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
- Clippers · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Clippers · Superstar Stack Two or more 90-overall stars bend games to their will on both ends.
