After Action Report
The Clippers took care of the Lakers 103-87. Ugly basketball, but the Clippers did just enough. Second-chance points piled up for the Clippers; Clippers' shot-blockers turned the paint into a no-fly zone. The Clippers bench chemistry carried them. Tonight's Lakers utilization choices clashed with the team identity. Survive-and-advance type win.
