Led by Lin's three-pointer early in the second half, the Hornets dominated the third quarter 29-8. The Clippers only made one field goal in the first six minutes. Frustrated, the Clippers players had some hard fouls on their opponents. After being called a flagrant foul, center DeAndre Jordan gave the Hornets' Kemba Walker three free-throws with fouls beyond the arc.

The Hornets built a comfortable 26-point advantage, giving the starting five more rest time on the bench, while their benchers still managed to extend the lead little by little. With 40-plus-point margin in hand with two minutes remaining, the Hornets sealed their second straight win against the Clippers in China.

Al Jefferson had 17 points for the Hornets. Batum and Lin helped with 14 and 13 respectively.

"It was a good win to finish the trip. We enjoyed ourselves during the past six days here. I think the goal that we had was to get better, and at the end of the trip, we did that," said Steve Clifford, Hornets' head coach.
