After Action Report
The Lakers took care of the Spurs 114-96. Lakers' offense had its way with the Spurs. The Lakers ride keeps rolling — they're catching fire; the Spurs played with the chip of a recent gutting loss. The Lakers bench chemistry carried them. Spurs' per-player workload didn't match the gameplan. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
