After Action Report
The Clippers blew the doors off the Trail Blazers 126-85. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Clippers cashed in. Clippers' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; the Clippers carried the swagger of a recent blowout into this one. The Clippers locker room is humming, and it showed. Clippers' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. Garbage time started early.
What tipped it
- Clippers · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- 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.
- Trail Blazers · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
- Trail Blazers · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
