After Action Report

In Los Angeles, the Clippers ran roughshod over the Kings 113-80. The better team simply showed up tonight. Fresh off a statement win, the Clippers stayed locked in; Clippers' old heads steadied the ship in the swings. The Kings looked disjointed — chemistry issues linger. The Kings rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night. Garbage time started early.

What tipped it

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