After Action Report
In Los Angeles, the Hornets took care of the Clippers 117-99. The Hornets got every break — every loose ball, every bounce. Hornets' outside barrage was a constant threat; Clippers' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim. Whispers of a Clippers locker-room rift aren't helping. The Clippers rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night.
What tipped it
- Clippers · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Clippers · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
