After Action Report
The Clippers took care of the Mavericks 127-113. The tempo dragged the Mavericks into a rhythm they couldn't survive. Clippers' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; the Clippers pushed the pace until the other side broke. The Clippers bench chemistry carried them. Clippers' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles.
