After Action Report
The Clippers squeaked past the Trail Blazers 97-95. Ugly basketball, but the Clippers did just enough. Clippers' Lockdown identity stifled the opposing offense; Trail Blazers' Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo. The Trail Blazers rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night. Style points be damned.
