After Action Report
The Clippers pulled away from the Celtics 119-102. Clippers torched the Celtics on the offensive end. Clippers' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; second-chance points piled up for the Clippers. The Clippers locker room is humming, and it showed. Tonight's Celtics utilization choices clashed with the team identity. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
