After Action Report
The Clippers survived the Hornets 105-103. Execution down the stretch made the difference. Hornets' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; Hornets' Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo. Clippers' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles.
What tipped it
