After Action Report
The Clippers fended off the Heat 100-92. The Clippers won despite a cold shooting night — grit beat polish. Clippers' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; Clippers' stars took over and bent the game to their will. The Clippers bench chemistry carried them. Heat's per-player workload didn't match the gameplan. Style points be damned.
