After Action Report
In Los Angeles, the Clippers squeaked past the Hornets 124-120. The tempo dragged the Hornets into a rhythm they couldn't survive. Clippers' Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo; Hornets' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition. The Clippers rotation plan paid off — leaning into the right spots created real lift.
