After Action Report
The Clippers took care of the Magic 110-98. Execution down the stretch made the difference. Clippers' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; Clippers' old heads steadied the ship in the swings. Whispers of a Magic locker-room rift aren't helping. Clippers' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles.
What tipped it
- Magic · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
- Clippers · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
