After Action Report

The Clippers handled the Suns 125-111. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Clippers cashed in. Second-chance points piled up for the Suns; Suns' Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo.

What tipped it

  • Clippers · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
  • Suns · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
  • Suns · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
