After Action Report
The Clippers squeaked past the Jazz 104-102. Ugly basketball, but the Clippers did just enough. The Clippers carried the confidence of a hot streak right into this one; the Clippers bent the defense out of shape from deep. Jazz's per-player workload didn't match the gameplan. Survive-and-advance type win.
