After Action Report

The Clippers rolled past the Mavericks 103-72. Ugly basketball, but the Clippers did just enough. Clippers' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; the Clippers looked unstoppable — pure Buzzsaw mode. The Clippers bench chemistry carried them. Clippers' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. Garbage time started early.

What tipped it

  • Mavericks · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
  • Clippers · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
  • Clippers · Buzzsaw An 8+ game winning streak — they cannot be stopped (until the league catches up).
  • Clippers · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
