After Action Report
In Los Angeles, the Heat blew the doors off the Clippers 108-83. Heat's starting five clicked while the Clippers looked disjointed. The Heat carried the swagger of a recent blowout into this one; Heat's veteran poise eliminated the costly mistakes. Whispers of a Clippers locker-room rift aren't helping. It was over by halftime.
What tipped it
- Clippers · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
- Clippers · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
- Heat · Statement Win Last time out, a 20+ point beating sent a message.
