After Action Report
The Clippers stunned the Hornets 124-114. The Hornets had no answer for the variance gods tonight. Hornets' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; the Hornets couldn't shake the cold spell. The Clippers bench chemistry carried them. The Clippers rotation plan paid off — leaning into the right spots created real lift. On paper this one shouldn't have been close — basketball had other ideas.
