OUT: AD,AR,LW4. Tacos all around as Lakers beat SAS. 5 guys in DFs with AD &
LBJ getting DDs (LBJ 1 RB short of a TD). Lakers did not play well till Q4
where they made an unmatched run on SA and decent D. Lakers were terrible with
BHing and RBing yet again and need to learn how to own the paint. 113-104
Lakers win by 9. AD looked fairly good for first time out and ankle seems OK.
FBP: 12 vs 9; PIP: 48 vs 58; POT: 10 vs 17; SCP: 15 vs 18.
