After Action Report

In Los Angeles, the Clippers ran roughshod over the Trail Blazers 114-90. Clippers' offense had its way with the Trail Blazers. Second-chance points piled up for the Clippers; the Clippers carried the confidence of a hot streak right into this one. The Clippers locker room is humming, and it showed. The Clippers rotation plan paid off — leaning into the right spots created real lift. Garbage time started early.
