Gay just picked up his 4th foul with 3:59 remaining in the 3rd. Maggette heads to the line and we up by 8 after he hits them both.

TT is really stepping up tonight. We need him with Thornton and Kaman in foul trouble. Looks like Grizz are making those mistakes of being a young team.

2 consecutive fastbreak scores for the Clippers. Thomas finishes the first one and creates the play with the steal and dish to Maggette for the 2nd fastbreak.

He's a having a well-balanced game. When he's making plays on D on top of the offense that he can bring, that's only a plus.

Cat scores a layup as he takes a couple of hits to the back of the head. He caught a hand by Cardinal and then was hit by Warrick's knee. Ivaroni gets a T and Mobley makes both free-throws. 4-point play. :clap:

Thomas with another steal but Cassell is unable to finish on the break. Clippers lead 82-67 at the end of 3.

We're up 82-67. Let's really put the Grizz away and secure a win. We're playing well and all we have to do is keep it up.

That would be a good idea.

The re-seeding?

Al fouls out. I have Al, Chris & Corey in one league that counts fouls. That's going to hurt. :nonono:

Clips-100
Grizz-86

Clippers win 100-86. They played solidly throughout the last 3 quarters. Maggette was the most consistent and added 30 points, 10 rebounds and 3 assists. Thomas and Mobley had solid stretches to help Corey out as Al & Chris were on the bench with foul trouble. Chris has been looking shaky lately after missing a week's worth of games. He started to pick it up late in the game. I really want to see him get back in his groove that we saw to start the season off. I really hope it was the injuries, flu and fatigue as opposed to him just dropping off. So hopefully we'll see him back to form in the next few games.

Oh. Did you ever hear the "official" reasoning behind Miller missing the game?
