The Los Angeles Lakers dominated the second half against the New Orleans Pelicans to extend their winning streak to five games and avoid another disappointing loss at Staples Center.
The Lakers were flummoxed to begin the game as they were unable to run their offense with the Pelicans clogging the paint. New Orleans also had no issues scoring, generating almost any look they wanted and going up by as many as 15 points.
However, Los Angeles was able to close the second quarter out on a run and ramped it up even more in the second half.
