After Action Report
In Los Angeles, the Clippers handled the Kings 98-87. The better team simply showed up tonight. Shots just aren't falling for the Clippers lately; Clippers' Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo. The Kings looked disjointed — chemistry issues linger. The Kings rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night. Style points be damned.
