After Action Report
In Boston, the Clippers demolished the Celtics 118-95. Execution down the stretch made the difference. Clippers' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; Celtics' skid keeps deepening — heads down on both ends. Whispers of a Celtics locker-room rift aren't helping. Never a doubt in this one.
What tipped it
- Celtics · Crashing An 8+ game losing skid — heads are down, both ends suffer.
- Celtics · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
- Clippers · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
