Oh my god, that's why it seemed like Karl threw this game. Are him and Dunleavy buddies? He wanted to save his bud's job. :lol:

I just watched the tape of the game --- lots of things to feel good about. Like others, though, I hope Sterling doesn't think this means Dunleavy is a competent coach for this team.
I loved the energy the bench brought to the game. It's great to see them play like that over sustained periods of time.
Also loved to see the unselfish play, and all the assists. Kaman's brilliant assist to Thornton in the 3rd was a great joy.
Enjoyed the interview with Blake. Good to know that Kaman and Camby are spending time with him, offering him help and guidance. He's lucky to have those two in particular. I'm sure he will benefit from it.
Luckily all the airballs didn't alter the outcome of the game. And it was useful that the officiating seemed to lean to the Clippers here and there.
Glad the guys calling the game clearly acknowledged the amount of talent on our team.
Very entertaining game to watch. I wouldn't have wanted to miss it.

I didn't start watching the game until the second quarter. When I turned on the TV I was surprised to see that we had a lead. I did get scared when Denver came back in the fourth and I really thought we were gonna lose the game. We didn't play that well in the fourth, but well enough to win. Seems like we had luck and the refs on our side. This was a game I was considering attending, but things came up. I'm glad that we got the win and maybe we can build some momentum.
I've been an LA Clipper fan since 1998 and that will never change. I hate our new logo and jerseys!

Nice game on national TV. Thank god we didn't blow it. If there is one thing Dunleavy is good at is beating the Nuggets.

No matter what we always somehow manage to beat them.

When things were looking rough in the beginning, I was reminiscing about the days of Q-Ross guarding Melo, but thankfully we were still able to pull out the win.

Watching the clutch 4th quarter possessions go through our 'point-center' Kave Man was a sight to see. He did great, except for the one where he got a little tricky trying to hit the cutter in the lane.

Nice win, you knew the Nuggets were going to rally and we were able to hold on.
