So...

14 games isn't a grand sample size, but it isn't that small of a sample size either. So, with that being said, at NO POINT should a team that is trotting out Tyrone Wallace, Wesley Johnson, Jawun Evans, Lou Williams, CJ Williams, Montrezl Harrell, Willie Reed, and Sam Dekker ever have the 3rd best offense 2nd best overall net rating in the entire league, let alone for a 14 game span

But that is exactly what's happened over this stretch. Whether it's Doc, the FO, whoever, this is miraculous stuff. I still don't think we'll make the playoffs tbh but I am floored by this stretch so far.

Not only that but they've all started. The Clips have started 16 different players this season.

No discipline for Griffin per Woj.


Good.
Relevant for tonight’s game.

Not relevant for tonight’s game:
Ariza and Green suspended for 2 games.
Paul and Harden...no discipline.

All from Woj.

That was the first left-handed dunk by Blake I've seen in like 4 years. That used to be one of his signature moves.

Anyone else can't stand Mason Plumlee? This guy always thinks he's the **** against the Clippers.

Most of this game was hideously ugly, but we won, and it's huge for our playoff hopes, so I'm not complaining. Not only that, but we won on an off night for Lou.

Coin toss games are so important for average teams. You really can't afford to be as bad as LAC was earlier in the season in clutch time. They were bottom 3 in the league w/the Hawks and Mavs.

Luckily, the Clips have been top 4 in this department over the past 15 games and while that isn't the sole reason for this run, it is a major one.

A week ago I would've traded Wes in a heartbeat, now I frikin' love him. Hell of a team we have right now, everyone is playing hard.

Game was not great but I am not sure guys that you realize how much Nuggets are talented and tough to beat team. Beside players who play standard good I like what I saw from Milos and Wesley lately. Milos beside getting back his stroke lately even tried to play defense, he is still bad in it but at least when he is putting extra effort like in this game some good things are happening. Wesley with some crucial points and good defense.

I love that this group is still winning. This was our 6th in a row, not sure how we won based on the stats. (I'll take it anyways)
I've been an LA Clipper fan since 1998 and that will never change. I hate our new logo and jerseys!
