After Action Report

The Clippers squeaked past the Mavericks 103-102. Execution down the stretch made the difference. Clippers' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; Clippers' veteran poise eliminated the costly mistakes. The Clippers locker room is humming, and it showed. Clippers' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles.
