After Action Report
In a track meet, the Clippers buried the Hornets 148-122. The tempo dragged the Hornets into a rhythm they couldn't survive. Clippers' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; Clippers' stars took over and bent the game to their will. The Clippers locker room is humming, and it showed. Garbage time started early.
What tipped it
- Clippers · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Clippers · Superstar Stack Two or more 90-overall stars bend games to their will on both ends.
- Clippers · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
- Hornets · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
