After Action Report
In Los Angeles, the Trail Blazers pulled away from the Clippers 128-118. Trail Blazers torched the Clippers on the offensive end. Trail Blazers' outside barrage was a constant threat; Clippers' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition. Whispers of a Clippers locker-room rift aren't helping.
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.
