After Action Report
In a track meet, the Clippers ran roughshod over the Trail Blazers 125-100. Clippers' offense had its way with the Trail Blazers. Clippers' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; Clippers' stars took over and bent the game to their will. The Clippers locker room is humming, and it showed. Trail Blazers' per-player workload didn't match the gameplan. Garbage time started early.
