After Action Report
In Sacramento, the Clippers outlasted the Kings 87-77. The Clippers won despite a cold shooting night — grit beat polish. Clippers' skid keeps deepening — heads down on both ends; Clippers' veteran poise eliminated the costly mistakes. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
What tipped it
- Kings · Statement Win Last time out, a 20+ point beating sent a message.
- Clippers · Crashing An 8+ game losing skid — heads are down, both ends suffer.
- Clippers · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
