Lakers open 2nd Q with LeBron & Westbrook attacking the rim as well, LeBron throwing a cross-court pass to ignite a fast-break and Malik Monk cooking. This might be something, or nothing at all. Hard to tell with this team. – 8:46 PM

End of 1st QTR: Nets 38, Lakers 23
Patty Mills (13 PTS), James Harden (9 PTS, 3 ASTS) & the Nets are firing on all cylinders. Brooklyn is shooting it at 67% from the field. The Lakers aren’t applying enough pressure too defensively, forcing 0 TO’s. Offensively, they have 7 TO’s. – 8:40 PM
