After Action Report
In a track meet, the Clippers fended off the Cavaliers 105-96. Clippers controlled the tempo from tip to buzzer. The Clippers played with the chip of a recent gutting loss; Clippers' Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo. Cavaliers' per-player workload didn't match the gameplan. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
