After Action Report
The Clippers survived the Hornets 105-104 in overtime. The Clippers won despite a cold shooting night — grit beat polish. Second-chance points piled up for the Clippers; Hornets' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim. The Clippers locker room is humming, and it showed. Style points be damned.
