After Action Report

The Clippers held off the Nuggets 105-98. Clippers torched the Nuggets on the offensive end. The Clippers owned the glass, generating extra possessions; fresh off a statement win, the Clippers stayed locked in. Whispers of a Nuggets locker-room rift aren't helping. Tonight's Nuggets utilization choices clashed with the team identity. Survive-and-advance type win.

What tipped it

  • Nuggets · Crashing An 8+ game losing skid — heads are down, both ends suffer.
  • Nuggets · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
  • Clippers · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
  • Clippers · Statement Win Last time out, a 20+ point beating sent a message.
