After Action Report
In Sacramento, the Clippers ran roughshod over the Kings 106-78. Clippers' starting five clicked while the Kings looked disjointed. The Clippers played with the chip of a recent gutting loss; Clippers' veteran poise eliminated the costly mistakes. Whispers of a Kings locker-room rift aren't helping. The Kings rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night. It was over by halftime.
What tipped it
- Kings · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Kings · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
- Kings · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
- Clippers · Heartbreak A gutting last-second loss — revenge is on the menu.
