After Action Report
The Clippers knocked off the Knicks 120-110. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Clippers cashed in. The Clippers couldn't shake the cold spell; Knicks' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition. Early returns: the Clippers per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight. An upset for the books.
