After Action Report

The Clippers buried the Lakers 113-82. Clippers' offense had its way with the Lakers. Second-chance points piled up for the Clippers; the Clippers answered the bell with a bounce-back effort. The Clippers bench chemistry carried them. Early returns: the Clippers per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight. Never a doubt in this one.
