After Action Report

The Clippers took care of the Celtics 131-120. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Clippers cashed in. Clippers' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; the Clippers owned the glass, generating extra possessions. The Clippers bench chemistry carried them. Early returns: the Clippers per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight.
