Star of the Game 1/11 vs Heat

Hard fought victory at home against one of the best teams in the league. This was a playoff type atmosphere for the guys, so we needs these types of games throughout the season.

funny how close I am to saying Jordan or Reggie Evans, Jordan did absolotely nothing during the game but seemed like he got all 6 blocks in the 4th/OT

but can't deny Chris Paul this one, he was there the WHOLE night when we needed him, he really was the leader in this one

CP3 is the star to me :D
I've been an LA Clipper fan since 1998 and that will never change. I hate our new logo and jerseys!

It didn't really click for DJ until the 4th quarter. He was a huge reason that we won. This type of win justifies Paul choosing to come and play here. We're not even as good as we can be yet, but this is a step in the right direction.

DeAndre Jordan - Some of you forget how much we struggled on offense late in the game. Each of those blocks would have amounted to points, which would have probably lead to a cHeat victory.

DJ was clutch in the end but CP was the MVP of the game. Everybody else did what they were supposed to do. BTW DJ should watch film and try to replicate his performance on Saturday,

CP3 was great, but I just love that Butler brings it every night and that's why I voted for him.

CP3 had an off nite in Portland,but he was "hot" against the Heat. CP3 proved in that game why the Clips gave up so much for him.
Yo gotta love CP3's "Floor General" attitude, it sort of reminds me of Avery Johnson leading the Spurs in the early 2000's. CP3 really has the ability to turn it up & to raise his team mates game,which was done last night.

DJ!!!!! cuz he's on my fantasy team with the 6 blocks! lol... i got cp3 too but i expected a triple double xD

on a serious note though: cp3 def the star of the game, but i think DJ saved a lot at the end when we went on a long stretch with no points, he was there to make some 3-4 key blocks to keep us close/ahead. dj got my vote for clutch D... apparently clutch d > clutch o. dj more clutch than lebron. #win!
Clipper fan since '95!!

CP3 no doubt. He was the go-to guy all night.
