After Action Report
The Suns stunned the Clippers 144-118. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Suns cashed in. Suns' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; the Suns carried the swagger of a recent blowout into this one. The Suns locker room is humming, and it showed. Add it to the list of nights the favorite forgot to show up.
