I did not realize Charlotte was in first place. Interesting division.

not bad
up 5 at the half
should be OK if Avery can keep a lid on Kemba [4-10, minus-1 so far]

Scott is still plus+7, no need to panic
now, if Luc were available, maybe...

talk about head-scratching sub patterns
Clips build up a 15-pt lead with Kemba on the bench until the 8:00 mark
no fancy stuff, just gritty D and a ton of Trezz tonight
up by 20 with 7 min to go

No panic. Scott still doing the little things but while in a slump could find ways to get Motley involved to help the team in meaningful minutes

Well, we made the game-clinching move with Scott on the floor
with Lou out there, we're really not wanting for shooting and Scott only took 3 shots, which is appropriate
not sure we needed a Trezz clone out there too
but Luc might be an improvement

Fantastic game. Doc had these guys ready to play and they executed on the defensive end pretty remarkably I thought. And it made playing offense easy tonight. This team just looks different when they get practice time in.

I did not watch this game but judging by your comments guys I see that Doc's persistence on placing D as priority pays off without a doubt. This is specially impressive in this more and more an offensive players favored rule-book league. West is so strong, particularly Pacific division where even Sacramento has enough talent to surprise anyone once or twice. West is so stacked that I think it will be a clear blowout at approaching ALL Star game . Having said this I must admit that Clips have already exceeded my most optimistic expectations thus far and I am glad I underestimated them. Good job!!

People always speak about the Clippers having no all star players but their big 3 is not too shabby.
They produce around 60 points 17 rebounds and 10 assists a game.

The Knicks are pretty much done with Enes Kantor who is an expiring contract. Would the Clippers be interested in Kantor for Gortat and a second round pick?
