Los Angeles Clippers, Despite Everything, Still Alive & Kicking
I don’t think too many people expected the Clippers to be in the Western Conference Semi Finals. Not when Chauncey Billups went down. They do have Chris Paul and Blake Griffin, but the bench, role players and defense weren’t supposed to be enough for a playoff series win; not against everyone’s favorite dark horse, the Memphis Grizzlies.

Blake Griffin Slowly Turning Into More Than Just a Highlights Star
Blake Griffin wasn’t on the floor for overtime, for Chris Paul taking over once again. But he built the lead that got the Clippers to overtime, in one of the most complete and versatile performances of his career, slowly breaking out of the ‘Just Dunking’ label, meanwhile possibly winning his first postseason series.

Chris Paul & How Far the Clippers Can Follow Him
Chris Paul is having an MVP type year some people say. There’s no real chance he takes the award from LeBron James or Kevin Durant, but he deserves at least some consideration.

Are the Clippers Better Than We Thought?

The Thunder are usually great in the clutch, especially on defense, but something about that zone they tried just didn’t work.

Kobe Bryant finished with 31 points, Andrew Bynum with 36. The Los Angeles Lakers beat their little sister 113-108 in a game that had most people talking about Blake Griffin destroying Pau Gasol with another one for the his impressive highlight book. With one less of a position to worry about for the Lakers, who on some nights, when things click on both ends of the floor, look like title contenders once again.

Chris Paul Doesn’t Enjoy Hornets Hospitality
Chris Paul thought his visit to New Orleans against the worst team in the Western Conference would go a little easier, a little better. Nothing is easy for the Los Angeles Clippers these days, losing their third straight game on the road and their ninth in March, slipping to the sixth spot in the Western conference after a 97-90 defeat against the Hornets.

Without Tony Parker Spurs Won’t Be Going Too Far
Chris Paul finished with 36 points, Mo Williams with 33. The difference in point guard production was a sore reminder for the San Antonio Spurs just how badly they need for everyone to be healthy come the playoffs, and even then, their impressive and surprising season will come to an early end.

Tony Parker and the San Antonio Spurs Too Hot Too Soon
Tony Parker (30 points, 10 assists) has been leading the San Antonio Spurs this season, with their latest 103-100 overtime win over the Los Angeles Clippers (thank you Chris Paul) with Gary Neal as unlikely hero being their 10th in a row, an NBA best this season, which won’t be enough come the playoffs.
