After Action Report
The Clippers shocked the Celtics 126-125. The breakneck pace played right into Clippers' hands. The Clippers looked unstoppable — pure Buzzsaw mode; the Clippers pushed the pace until the other side broke. The Clippers locker room is humming, and it showed. Early returns: the Clippers per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight. On paper this one shouldn't have been close — basketball had other ideas.
