After Action Report
The Clippers fended off the Heat 112-105. The Clippers got every break — every loose ball, every bounce. The Clippers owned the glass, generating extra possessions; shots just aren't falling for the Clippers lately. Whispers of a Heat locker-room rift aren't helping.
What tipped it
- Heat · Crashing An 8+ game losing skid — heads are down, both ends suffer.
- Heat · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
- Clippers · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
- Clippers · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
