I've been an LA Clipper fan since 1998 and that will never change. I hate our new logo and jerseys!

Hopefully we actually buckle down and beat these guys tonight. Should have beaten them in Memphis

Definitely was not the best defensive half one could imagine, nowhere close, but Memphis was also unable to defend the Clippers.

A lot of nice runouts, Lou making all these off-balanced shots, and they can't contain Blake. Gotta keep it up in the 2nd half, these wins are needed as some tough games are coming up.

We're one game away from the playoffs now, and 2.5 games from the 5th seed. With the way the Pelicans and Blazers are playing, it's more than realistic that we get in. Could be fun to get into the postseason, even if we're not gonna do a lot there.

It was pretty awesome to watch Blake dunking on dudes (specially off a Milos assist) and sinking clutch 3s, this team ca still be very enjoyable.

There was a moment at 4th quarter when we are leading like 8 or 9, 5 minutes left to the end and DJ just started to do brainfart actions. No boxing out let Jarrel Martin and Wayne Selden to get 2nd change points, also a couple mis rotations at PNR lead Tyreke to the free throw line and Marc Gasol to an easy lay up. Our lead decreased to 3 or 4 points while we have 3 minutes left in the game.

Doc suddenly and furiously called a timeout. The Screen shows his angry face directly, I have never seen Doc in Clippers looking to a player like that before. A devestated and tired of BS's. It might not something serious or maybe my inference is misconstructed but that's what take my attention during the game and wanted to share with you all. Have you guys notice that? Maybe DJ and Doc aren't that good anymore.

DJ tends to lose focus every once in a while, I've seen Doc yell at him for it many times, though it was specially deserved last night lol

Thornwell and Willie Reed brought this game home for us. Sam Dekker too. Superb defending when our team defense from the starters was lacking.
