I thought we have had a fair shake with the officiating, for once, tonight. A couple of MKG's fouls were bad calls in my opinion.

With every passing game, I have to believe D Ferry comes to the realization that AL & Jeff are the real building blocks for this team.

Korver's proving his value as well.

EVERYONE else is expendable...

I think Lou should be on your list of players to keep, he's been solid this season and he gave us the hometown discount by taking the MLE. He's one of my favorite players for that

We really kicked their rear ends tonight: shot 53.8% from the field and 50.0% from 3, outrebounded them 41 - 36 and blocked 15(!!) shots. Held them to 37.3% shooting from the field. I'll take this kind of play anytime.

Indeed. At his salary, he is a GREAT value.

My only concern is if both he and Teague can exist together long-term. Seems like they both need the ball in their hands to be effective.

Curious if any you hawk fans caught who wilkins mentioned as the top in game dunkers of all time in the pre game show? I missed it. Hoping V.C got some love.

Solid end to the first quarter, we withstand a Clipper run and are only down by 3

Does Kyle Korver know he's allowed to attempt FGs inside of the 3-pt arc?

Glad to see Morrow finally getting some PT!!!

Agreed, on a side note, Morrow's push shot is a thing of beauty

If he can't start, can LD at least give him some steady playing time?

Clippers score their first points of the 2nd quarter with 5:20 left in the quarter. It as a tough outside jumpshot by Griffin
