After Action Report

In Los Angeles, the Clippers took care of the Grizzlies 129-113. Clippers' offense had its way with the Grizzlies. Clippers' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; the Grizzlies owned the glass, generating extra possessions. The Grizzlies looked disjointed — chemistry issues linger. The Grizzlies 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.
  • Grizzlies · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
  • Grizzlies · Crashing An 8+ game losing skid — heads are down, both ends suffer.
  • Grizzlies · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
