After Action Report
The Clippers snuck past the Lakers 106-101. Ugly basketball, but the Clippers did just enough. The Clippers owned the glass, generating extra possessions; the Clippers sent shots into the fifth row all night. The Clippers locker room is humming, and it showed. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
