The Clippers held off the Mavericks 102-93. Ugly basketball, but the Clippers did just enough. Second-chance points piled up for the Clippers; the Clippers pushed the pace until the other side broke. The Clippers locker room is humming, and it showed. Early returns: the Clippers per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight. Style points be damned.
