Austin loses us another one
oh wait

after 3Q
leading scorer with 19

but seriously, folks
after the starters put up a 20-pt lead in the 3Q, the bench just gave a bunch of it back
all the starters +17 or so, bench in the minus [Jawun minus-10 :( ]

seems like old times
Doc is so Doc
starters all over 24 minutes
bench all under 12 except for Lou

Clips up 15
after 3

let's see

Ok, I'm convinced. Milos is the most dynamic passer I've ever seen in a Clipper jersey. Yeah, we had CP3 and he was a great passer but he wasn't the "flashy" passer that Milos is.

yup


ADD: Watching the plus/minus as the game goes on is so much more instructive than just looking at the final totals

Clippers back up by 20 with 7:00 left
totally attributable to Milos' genius
the entire bench [except Evans] went from minus-3 to +7 or so
Milos went from +17 to +29

LAST ADD: yay we won

5-2 in games with Teo playing ;)

Now, you might say that we beat the Lakers, Suns, Raptors, Magic and Suns again, so technically only one of those is worth mentioning and the rest are just beating on the league's worst teams, but that's not the question :)

We're starting two G-leaguers. Not just playing guys who should be spending most of their time in G-League like Jawun, but STARTING genuine 2-way contract G-leaguers. WE'RE the worst team in the league.

I'm kinda proud of that, especially when we win. :)

I thought that this was a game that we could win, but I wasn't expecting to see that. I was out of it last night, so I didn't follow the game at all. I woke up this morning to see that we controlled the game easily. I'm always happy for a win and I keep thinking how good this team could be if we were just healthy.

I also forgot that the Suns have some of their better players out also.
I've been an LA Clipper fan since 1998 and that will never change. I hate our new logo and jerseys!

12-18 now after the first 30 games? so we are winning at 40% rate I see.
in a full season, so if we keep this pace, that is another 20 or so games we could win at the near pace, with a room for a couple of disaster games as insurance, we are on pace for about 32-33 wins this year if we don't pick up any momentum... I will say we will get in mid 30s to high 30s in win column. that's the worst place to be in the draft...

anywho, good win, good to see the guys gain some confidence back. didn't see the game but I watched some highlights while at work, and that Reed's windmill, LOL not exactly Dominique, but well done, big fella!
ehhhhh f it.
