After Action Report
The Clippers fended off the Trail Blazers 113-106. The tempo dragged the Trail Blazers into a rhythm they couldn't survive. The Clippers answered the bell with a bounce-back effort; Trail Blazers' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
