After Action Report
The Clippers ran roughshod over the Hornets 125-102. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Clippers cashed in. Clippers' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; the Clippers ride keeps rolling — they're catching fire. The Clippers locker room is humming, and it showed. One bad quarter was all it took to crack this one open.
What tipped it
- Clippers · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Clippers · Catching Fire Riding a 4+ game winning streak — confidence is high.
- Clippers · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
- Hornets · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
