After Action Report
The Clippers edged the Hawks 98-90. Ugly basketball, but the Clippers did just enough. The Clippers ride keeps rolling — they're catching fire; Clippers' defenders refused to give up clean looks. Clippers' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
What tipped it
- Clippers · Catching Fire Riding a 4+ game winning streak — confidence is high.
