After Action Report
The Celtics ran roughshod over the Clippers 117-94. Celtics controlled the tempo from tip to buzzer. Celtics' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; the Celtics pushed the pace until the other side broke. The Celtics locker room is humming, and it showed. Celtics' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. It was over by halftime.
