After Action Report
The Clippers buried the Hornets 124-102. Clippers' scorers couldn't be contained. Second-chance points piled up for the Clippers; the Hornets couldn't shake the cold spell. Whispers of a Hornets locker-room rift aren't helping. One bad quarter was all it took to crack this one open.
What tipped it
- Hornets · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
- Hornets · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
- Clippers · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
