After Action Report
In Los Angeles, the Clippers blew the doors off the Suns 134-96. Clippers torched the Suns on the offensive end. Clippers' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; Clippers' stars took over and bent the game to their will. The Clippers locker room is humming, and it showed. The Suns rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night. It was over by halftime.
What tipped it
- Clippers · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
