who's idea was to have the teams dress up in blue and purple?

Will not finish the season under .500 for the seventh straight year. You gotta recognize that as a Clipper fan.

I figgered the Suns would be happy to stay close for a half
then let themselves lose
and we pulled away in the 2nd half without much of a fight

IMO this was Austin's [team-leading +25] best all-around game of the year
had to play out of position yet again--starting PG with Milos out and was 8 assists/1 TO until a couple sloppy giveaways when the game was already won

the thing is, his offense has fallen off lately, but I think that's because his defensive effort has really picked up
held Lowry to 11 points the other day

even his 3 TOs tonight were balanced by 3 steals
and 8 assists/3 TO ratio is quite acceptable for a fill-in PG

props to Tobias, of course
but although he scored 27, he was only plus+1
that's why you have to watch the game
Austin kept us in it all the way

then we finished 'em off


@Blazers next
Friday
let's cream those punks!!

how nice to see Ranma back in a game thread once again after such a long absence

not exactly talking about the game
but close enough


add+1, bro

7 games to go

Game was close in the 1st half, glad that we pulled away in the 2nd half. I had a feeling that we could build a lead on the Suns. This is our 4th straight win after losing 4 in a row. I feel more comfortable about our playoff hopes. We still have a shot to make it if this team wants it.

1 game out of the playoffs. I do not know what the tiebreaker situation is for the Clippers.

Clippers have to win every single game, and the odds are stacked against them.

4-7 against the top three seeds in the west. They have Blazers today.

5-19 against seeds 4 through 8 in both conferences. They have Pacers, Spurs, Jazz and Pelicans.

Lose any one of these games, they're automatically out.
