After Action Report
The Clippers buried the Lakers 111-91. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Clippers cashed in. Clippers' veteran poise eliminated the costly mistakes; Lakers' outside barrage was a constant threat. The Clippers bench chemistry carried them. Tonight's Lakers utilization choices clashed with the team identity. Never a doubt in this one.
What tipped it
