After Action Report
The Lakers blew the doors off the Bulls 140-110. Lakers controlled the tempo from tip to buzzer. The Lakers owned the glass, generating extra possessions; Lakers' Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo. The Lakers locker room is humming, and it showed. Bulls' per-player workload didn't match the gameplan. Never a doubt in this one.
What tipped it
- Lakers · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
