Missed most of the first half, but just seems like the team couldn't get much consistent going on offense or defense

Well we come up short in DC and our winning streak ends at 9. I didn't watch the game, but by the looks of the boxscore we a tough time and we struggled. Well since this streak has ended let's start another one. We lose to the Wizards 104-96.
I've been an LA Clipper fan since 1998 and that will never change. I hate our new logo and jerseys!

104-96 Wizards win. Final score is closer than the game was.

I'm happy for 'Sual. He was "done" 5 years ago. Props to him for not giving up, swallowing his pride by heading to the D-League and earning a spot back in the league. He's been a huge surprise this season and is playing some of the best basketball of his career.

The Wizards felt that they had something to prove and gave the effort to go out and do it. Heading into the game, the Wizards were the top 3 point shooting team with us in second. Their shots fell and ours didn't. Their defense was on point and we struggled as a result. If your offense isn't clicking, you would like to be able to rely on your defense. That's an issue for this team.

The good thing is that there's another game tomorrow and chance to reedem ourselves. Hopefully the Hawes injury isn't too serious.

Fun game, remember when the Wizards were called the clippers of the east and vice versa.... Good to see the two teams play in some meaningful games.

Defense. This team still can't win games on defense.

Wizards: 48.8% FG / 56.2% 3PT

The Clippers 10 extra FTA helped the team stay "closer", but it was one of those games where they could never really make enough of a run to get truly close.

Of course, even with all that, 18 tov is a bit much and Matt Barnes really shouldn't have 5 tov games.

ANy chance they had of winning the game went out the window when DJ was called for the tech for hanging on the rim. Took all of their momentum. Quite a bogus call.

I think it was dead before that even, just no defense
