After Action Report

The Clippers rolled past the Spurs 113-85. The better team simply showed up tonight. The Clippers owned the glass, generating extra possessions; the Clippers carried the swagger of a recent blowout into this one. The Clippers bench chemistry carried them. Tonight's Spurs utilization choices clashed with the team identity. Garbage time started early.

What tipped it

  • Spurs · 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.
  • Clippers · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
