After Action Report

In Los Angeles, the Clippers survived the Heat 117-115. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Clippers cashed in. Clippers' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; the Clippers carried the swagger of a recent blowout into this one. The Clippers locker room is humming, and it showed. The Clippers rotation plan paid off — leaning into the right spots created real lift.
