After Action Report
The Clippers downed the Pistons 97-83. Ugly basketball, but the Clippers did just enough. The Clippers looked unstoppable — pure Buzzsaw mode; the Pistons carried the swagger of a recent blowout into this one. The Clippers bench chemistry carried them. Clippers' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
