After Action Report

In Los Angeles, the Clippers outlasted the Hawks 118-101. Lineup balance gave the Clippers a clear synergy edge. Second-chance points piled up for the Clippers; the Hawks are in a full-on tailspin. The Clippers locker room is humming, and it showed. Hawks' per-player workload didn't match the gameplan.

What tipped it

  • Clippers · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
  • Clippers · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
  • Hawks · Crashing An 8+ game losing skid — heads are down, both ends suffer.
  • Hawks · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
