too much McCollum

21 points in the 4th
if we could clone Bev we would have won :-)

CORRECTION: 23 in the 4th
Clippers only scored 20

Kept it close for a long time.
Just too much firepower for them tonight.

That sucks. Might be another team to try and avoid if possible because of their big man duo

Seems like McCollum always plays like a hall of famer against the clippers. He is definitely good but seems to save his best for the clippers

True enough.

I hate the Warriors.
They don’t deserve a playoff win over this franchise.

I think its too early but if I was a crazy conspiracy guy I might wonder if it was possible the team was doing some playoff seed maneuvering.

Next 9 games are gonna be huge, 7 should-wins, along with home against the Pacers, and at Milwaukee. We probably need to be 6th after that stretch, to escape the 8th spot.

Of course, final game is home against Utah.
