After Action Report

In Los Angeles, the Clippers rolled past the Mavericks 113-86. The better team simply showed up tonight. The Clippers owned the glass, generating extra possessions; the Mavericks bent the defense out of shape from deep. The Clippers locker room is humming, and it showed. Clippers' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. Never a doubt in this one.
