Lakers were a complete team on Friday as they finished off the Memphis Grizzlies in their first-round series with a 125-85 win in Game 6. They will advance to face the winner between the Sacramento Kings and Golden State Warriors, who play a Game 7 on Sunday.
Unlike their comically dominant first-quarter performance in Game 3, the Lakers’ stomping of Memphis developed steadily this time, going from an 11-point lead at the end of the first quarter to a 17-point lead at halftime to 33 points at the end of the third. The benchwarmers were put in with nine minutes left in the fourth.
