I am writing this recap and the game is only just midway through the 4th quarter. The Clippers haven’t won a game by double-digits since the Hawks 10 days ago. Now, to me, that isn’t that long, especially not for a flawed team like the Clippers. But this was still a nice surprise following that upsetting lo[...]

Since you’re probably tired of me saying “DEFENSE BAD!” over and over again, let’s bring some more nuanced analysis in from Kevin Arnovitz on the Clippers problems with Vinny Del Negro. This is an excerpt from his piece at ESPNLA — you can read the full article here.  – D.J. *** At s[...]

First things first – Ledger. Moving along. Yeesh. I knew the Hornets would have some fight in them tonight. They are an NBA team. The crowd was going to be large (was more or less a total sellout).

If the deficiencies in this performance were unique to the matchup against the Western Conference leading Thunder, then tonight’s loss could[...]
