It’s fair to say that the Clippers perform best in the halfcourt when Baron Davis is looking to pass the ball, rather than chucking shots from beyond 20 feet. In two of the first three Clippers’ possessions in the first overtime, Davis distributes twice to Marcus Camby for two FGMs [a p[...]

This games warrants a close look, and we’ll do that later when the Clippers broadcast emerges from its wormhole 90 minutes behind the rest of the universe. This is an odd game in which the gutsiness pendulum swings wildly. On one hand, an Indiana team minus Danny Granger, Troy Murphy, Marquis[...]

It’s another transitional game for the Clippers, but one in which their defensive liabilities are on full display. The Clippers surrender 11 3PMs, and give up even more open looks than that from beyond the arc. For all of Marcus Camby’s prowess as a help defender, he’s a liability [...]
