Lakers lead 54-41 at the half

Sasha Vujacic comes off the bench and gets the Lakers going, nailing three straight 3-pointers at the start of the second quarter. Then with 6:03 to go, the Lakers break open a 13-point lead as Pau Gasol throws down a dunk off an alley-oop pass from Kobe Bryant. Utah tries to muscle its way back into the game, but can’t shoot its way out of a paper bag, missing 17 of its 24 shots in the quarter
