After Action Report
In Los Angeles, the Clippers squeaked past the Kings 112-107. Clippers controlled the tempo from tip to buzzer. Clippers' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; the Clippers played with the chip of a recent gutting loss. The Clippers locker room is humming, and it showed. Tonight's Kings utilization choices clashed with the team identity. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
What tipped it
- Clippers · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Clippers · Heartbreak A gutting last-second loss — revenge is on the menu.
- Clippers · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
