After Action Report

In Los Angeles, the Clippers downed the Hornets 110-94. Execution down the stretch made the difference. The Clippers answered the bell with a bounce-back effort; Hornets' shot-blockers turned the paint into a no-fly zone. The Clippers locker room is humming, and it showed. The Hornets rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night.
