After Action Report
In Boston, the Celtics fended off the Clippers 108-99. Celtics torched the Clippers on the offensive end. Clippers' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; the Clippers came in with something to prove after a loss. The Celtics locker room is humming, and it showed. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
