After Action Report

The Clippers squeaked past the Celtics 120-117. Clippers' scorers couldn't be contained. The Clippers came in with something to prove after a loss; Celtics' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim. The Celtics rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night.

What tipped it

  • Celtics · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
  • Celtics · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
  • Clippers · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
