After Action Report
In a track meet, the Celtics took care of the Clippers 138-128. Celtics torched the Clippers on the offensive end. Celtics' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; Celtics' Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo. The Celtics locker room is humming, and it showed.
