After Action Report
In Los Angeles, the Clippers ran roughshod over the Kings 148-92. Clippers torched the Kings on the offensive end. The Clippers owned the glass, generating extra possessions; the Clippers steamroller is in full effect right now. The Clippers locker room is humming, and it showed.
