After Action Report

In Washington, the Clippers edged the Wizards 103-95. The better team simply showed up tonight. Clippers' defenders refused to give up clean looks; Wizards' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition. The Clippers bench chemistry carried them. Clippers' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. Style points be damned.

What tipped it

  • Wizards · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
  • Wizards · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
  • Clippers · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
