The Clippers fail to extend their season high three game winning streak, and head into the Christmas break after losing a highly entertaining back and forth game to Rockets, 97-92. The Rockets led the entire game, and while the Clippers managed to cut that lead to a single point on several occasions[...]
Streaking into their matchup with the Rockets, the Clippers find themselves with a rudimentary identity: rebound the ball well (2nd in the NBA in rebound rate) and get out in transition. They are only 17th in the league in pace, but that may have more to do with the instant slowdown when the fastbre[...]
Come on! You can bring your green hat! Eric Gordon scored 36 points, Blake “The Unicorn” Griffin and Ryan Gomes added 22 a piece, Baron Davis served out 12 assists and the rest of the Clippers rode out the momentum to beat the Timberwolves and win the Clippers third game in a row for the[...]
With all the pundits talking about the Miami win streak, the Celtics win streak, the (now snapped) New York Knicks win streak, it’s shocking that no one is talking about the winning streak (trend?) that is even more improbable than of all those: the Clippers two game road win streak. Especiall[...]

The Clippers dominated in Detroit tonight, snapping a five game losing streak with a 109-88 shellacking of the Pistons. Blake Griffin was dominant again going for 42 points and 17 rebounds against a Pistons front line that never really had a chance. The Clippers had more rebounds than the Pistons, m[...]
If you want to talk about the underrated dunks of Blake this season, the Pistons game a month ago provided a lot of them. Blake even made a dunk attempt spectacular.
