After seeing a reply it looks as if Corey took a shot to the arm (bicep). He appears to be ok now.

I like when Moon 'stripped' Maggette, Moon stopped, assuming the foul was going to be called. All ball! :rofl:

58-50 Raptors at the half. Clippers need to step up their defense. We've yet to find a way slow Bosh down low. Thornton has had a couple of mistakes that have led to turnovers and opponents getting into good position to score. We need to limit our turnovers in the 2nd half. Thomas played the first quarter but hasn't come back so it's not known if he will be back. Maggette leads all scorers with 20. We need Cat or Chris to get involved offensively since Sam is out.

Thomas will not return.

Corey throws up an airball that grazes Moon's arm and catches the rebound. He's called for the travel.

2 1/2 minutes into the 3rd and the Clippers trail 61-52.

Kaman just got a technical for hanging on the rim for a dunk. Eh I've seen worse not get called for it.

Corey draws the foul on Moon (his 4th) behind the line and he will shoot 3.

He makes all 3. Raptors lead 68-62. Corey has 25 tonight.

Clippers get a break as a loose ball foul is called on Delfino. Otherwise the ball would have gone to the Raps under their own basket. The previous possession we had the opportunity to cut their lead to 1 or even tie but Mobley settled for a bad contested shot with ample time still left on the clock.

Bingo!! Maggette hits his 5th 3 and the Clips take the lead 78-77. Toronto will play for the last shot and Ford misses. Clippers will head into the 4th quarter on top. Maggette has been getting open looks and he is sinking them. :clap:

Damn, the Raptors have missed huge slam dunks (Bosh then Delfino) in the fourth.

Mobley hits a 3 with a hand in his face to give the Clips an 8 point lead. 16-0 run. At first I was going to get mad since he's used poor judgment on his last few possessions, but it went in so it's all good.

Bosh goes to the line and knocks down both free-throws ending the Clippers 18-0 run. We lead by 8 at 87-79 with 7:40 left in the game.

Moon's 3 makes it a 5-point game. 5 1/2 minutes left.

Return to Los Angeles Clippers
