After Action Report
In a track meet, the Spurs shocked the Clippers 125-97. Spurs' offense had its way with the Clippers. Clippers' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; Clippers' stars took over and bent the game to their will. On paper this one shouldn't have been close — basketball had other ideas.
What tipped it
- Spurs · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
- Clippers · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Clippers · Superstar Stack Two or more 90-overall stars bend games to their will on both ends.
- Clippers · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
