Redick has already shattered the franchise 3 point record. He's now 4 away from 200 on the season.

In a bit of a switch, three Clippers starters are -3 after the 1st period in a tie game while three bench players are +3. Everyone else on the team is at an even 0.

5 turnovers for the Clips during the very early part of the 2nd quarter to Denver's 1.

Props to Denver, they got on the glass and got a ton of shots up.

Looks like Paul got fouled on that last possession, but it is what it is

I hope our players want HCA as much as we do. Also the idea of playing Memphis first round is mouth watering.

Memphis is getting slaughtered. Klay has 37 at the half. Thank you GS for taking care of business in that one.

Now we just need to finish strong and get this W to get a little seperation.

I guess I overestimated the Clippers' focus coming into this game. Hopefully they'll get their act together early in the 3rd.

Wouldnt you guys want to tank this and face the Blazers in the first round then the Warriors?

I'd rather get the highest seed possible and have HCA for as many rounds as possible. To be the best we're going to have to beat the best. Going to have to go thru SA and GS regardless. I'd rather have home court.

9 minutes of playing time and Jamal hasn't even taken a shot. I'm shocked.

If that were the goal, they could win this one and mail it in tomorrow. If the Clips tank this one and manage to drop the last one to Phoenix tomorrow, they could fall into the 6th seed if the other 3 teams win their final game.

If the Spurs sit against the Pelicans, it's a 1st round matchup with them.

Houston wont lose at home to the Jazz

Just checked the score and I see we're down 2. I know we can win this game. Don't need to disappoint now.

HCA is on the line. They also will have had 2 days off before their final game. I don't think they sit. It's Pop, so you never know, but I'd expect them to play.

Making every game exciting for the fans? :)

Great to see DJ making clutch FT. Feels like the whole team gets energy from that.
