After Action Report
In a track meet, the Clippers demolished the Hornets 143-92. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Clippers cashed in. 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. Tonight's Hornets utilization choices clashed with the team identity. Garbage time started early.
What tipped it
- Clippers · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Clippers · Superstar Stack Two or more 90-overall stars bend games to their will on both ends.
- Clippers · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
