Clippers end the Heat's 13 game road winning streak and give them their 2nd loss in 23 games.

This was a great team effort, I'm going with Blake tonight. He had some big baskets and rebounds in the fourth. His back also may have been bothering him, what a warrior.
I've been an LA Clipper fan since 1998 and that will never change. I hate our new logo and jerseys!

I have to go with Baron. I have been one of his biggest critics (even though there are many) for a long time, but he silenced me tonight (even though I was not silent at all).

Another balanced game, so tough to choose one player. I think Baron led the team down the stretch and held the team together as a leader. Man, but I love how Blake got amped up after his scuffle with Chalmers.

I would be quite happy if every player got a vote out of this game.

But narrowing to one I went Baron. He was our 1st quarter. Was it 10 points and 5 assists?

I went with Blake. Number-wise, he did a little bit of everything as usual. He toughed it out with his back tightening up. He got in a few faces to stand up for his team. He played through some pain, but he really wanted the win and it probably wouldn't have happened if he didn't come back.

Baron was phenomenal. I loved the way that he played tonight. It was hard not to go with him. EJ did his thing and made some incredibly tough shots and took care of business at the foul line. Bledsoe didn't shoot too well, but his energy was much needed off of the bench. Miss Madelyn Burke calls him B12 and that nickname totally fits. Gomes even played decently tonight with some tough defensive stances on LeBron. Great team win tonight.

I went with Blake tonight, getting back into the game with back spasms in the 4th quarter. Another guy who played well tonight that hasn't been mentioned is Aminu, some good defense with 2 blocks and 4-4 from the field.

A victory against the Heat doesn't rest on one player. The whole team is a star tonight.

For me it's Blake. His clutch moments in the 4th (the clutch bank shot, the dunk, even the tech) sealed it for me.

Can't even pick - True team effort. Baron Davis started the run (and provided leadership) in the beginning of the game where it seemed like everyone was still nervous. Blake was Blake. Eric Gordon helped score down the stretch when we were slumping. DJ, Aminu, Gomes, Bledsoe, etc. even Diogu and Collins all contributed.
