After Action Report
The Clippers snuck past the Spurs 91-90. Ugly basketball, but the Clippers did just enough. The Clippers owned the glass, generating extra possessions; the Clippers pushed the pace until the other side broke. The Clippers locker room is humming, and it showed. Style points be damned.

- Clippers · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
- Clippers · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
