After Action Report

In a track meet, the Suns knocked off the Clippers 133-108. The tempo dragged the Clippers into a rhythm they couldn't survive. You could feel the revenge motivation from the Suns; Suns' Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo. The Suns locker room is humming, and it showed. Suns' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. On paper this one shouldn't have been close — basketball had other ideas.

What tipped it

  • Clippers · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
  • Clippers · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
