    Los Angeles Clippers & The Most Important Win of the Season

    We didn’t see anything special from Chris Paul or Blake Griffin, yet the Los Angeles Clippers looked quite pleased walking off the court in a game that proved once again that this team has the right mix of players, stars and bench guys to make this season the greatest in the history of the franchise, even if it means that winning basketball isn’t going to be as flashy as we’ve gotten used to seeing from them on certain nights.

  • Los Angeles Clippers – Chris Paul Turns Them into City & Division Champions

    Blake Griffin made the finish even more impressive than most of the game has been with his dunking and a huge three pointer, but it was Chris Paul, all throughout this game and all throughout the season that kept the Los Angeles Clippers ahead of their city and division rivals, sweeping the series with the Lakers for the first time in history while earning their first ever Pacific division title.

    With players like Chris Paul and Blake Griffin in the lineup, it was quite clear the Los Angeles Clippers weren’t going to fail this season because of their offense.

    Lobs, dunks and Alley-oops mean that the Los Angeles Clippers are rollin’, and despite falling a little bit behind the top two in the Western Conference, Chris Paul isn’t going to let his team slip too far down the charts of the playoff seeding, making life easy and fun for Blake Griffin and DeAndre Jordan.

    Seasons change, but some names on the worst free throw shooters in the NBA list don’t. Dwight Howard had an impressive 25-39 night for the Lakers in a win over the Magic, but that doesn’t improve his situation too much, being the player who costs his team the most points from the line this season.

    It’s been a season of growing up for Blake Griffin, and prioritizing. After being mostly known for alley oops and amazing dunks during the first two years in the NBA, he’s now a more complete player – better passer, more low post moves, improved defense. Still, the Los Angeles Clippers do get to enjoy the high-flying side of his game from time to time.
