On Saturday night, the Clippers beat the Cleveland Cavaliers 108-78.

Leading up to Saturday, the highly anticipated game against the Cavs was seen as a must-win for the Clippers. The Clippers had dropped three games in a row, and J.J. Redick‘s post game comments after falling to Denver had everyone going stir crazy for a win.

About an hour and a half before tip off, it was announced that Cavs stars LeBron James, Kevin Love, and Kyrie Irving were all going to rest during this primetime ABC broadcasted game. Fortunately, the Clippers took advantage, as they were supposed to, and beat the shorthanded Cavs by 30.

Here are four takeaways from a rather boring game in Los Angeles.
