If you missed the first half, be happy about it. Fortunately the guys are right back in it, 22 point turnaround after being down 18.

Where would the Clippers be without Reggie Jackson?

Nice to see Morris step up.

After that first half I wasn’t feeling we’d get the win.

It's crazy how coming back from "only" down 18 almost feels mundane these days because of how many times we've rewritten the record book on NBA comebacks.

In the spirit of Selection Sunday: survive and advance. :wink:

Glad to see the Clippers pull out a win because their next 10 games / 2 weeks are going to be rough. Strong opponents.

He has come through when they needed him this year on many occasions.

It's a shame they weren't able to find a back up PG though because I feel like they are playing him too many minutes.

exactly- have to take wins wherever you can get them.

They are now in very good position to keep the 8th seed. Highly unlikely to catch Minnesota for the 7th. It would be nice to have home court for the play-in, but you'd much rather have to win just one game to make it in vs. 2 games. I think the concept of the play-in is flawed, especially when the gap between the 8th and 9th seed is so vast in terms of games behind

Wow, that was the ugliest first quarter I've seen from the Clippers in quite a while.

Morris and Jackson show - those guys carried the team at key moments.

Covington still out for "personal reasons"?? This is third game without him.

Ugly win, but the ugliest "W" is better than the prettiest "L".

That's what happens when you combine an early Sunday game on the east coast with Daylight Savings Time. The game basically didn't start for the Clippers until an hour into the game. If the Pistons weren't tanking, this would have been a scheduled loss. Terrible scheduling by the NBA.
