The Clippers are expected to suffer a reduction in opportunities in this game from squaring off against the slowest pace team in the league over the last 10 games (the Boston Celtics).The Clippers have been the 2nd-worst offensive rebounding offense in the league over the last 10 games as the home team (offensive rebounds maintain possession, and a lack of them may therefore reduce additional opportunities for scoring and assists).This year, the opposition's starting PGs have attempted 2.3 free throws per game (fewest in the league) against the Boston Celtics, facing an uphill battle to get to the charity stripe.
