After Action Report

The Clippers ran roughshod over the Hawks 104-83. Every possession went the Clippers way. Clippers' defenders refused to give up clean looks; shots just aren't falling for the Hawks lately. The Clippers bench chemistry carried them. Early returns: the Clippers per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight. It broke open after the break.

What tipped it

  • Hawks · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
  • Hawks · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
  • Clippers · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
