The matchup vs. Los Angeles is a hard one for scoring; when the LA Clippers have the home court advantage, opposing starting PGs have compiled the 8th-lowest field goal percentage in the league this year (42.1%).The 2nd-most lethargic tempo offense in the NBA this year has been the Boston Celtics.The Boston Celtics are expected to suffer a drop-off in plays in this game from squaring off against the most sluggish pace-of-play team in the NBA this year (the Clippers).As a team, the Boston Celtics have been lousy at drawing fouls: worst in the NBA this year, tallying a mere 19.7 free throw attempts per game.This year when they are the visiting team, the opposition's starting PGs have attempted 2.9 free throws per game (8th-lowest in the league) vs. the Clippers, making it tough to get to the charity stripe.
