Nice move by Collins inside, and now the slam on the fastbreak! Harden & 4 reserves out there right now. Clips up 27-19.
Collins now tips in the missed 3 by Lopez!
Lopez with the bingo to beat the clock! That's pretty crazy that every FG he's made this season thus far is a 3
Now a great block by Brook as Sharpe tried to dunk on him lol
Kawhi who did well with the second unit last game, starts the second Q with the bench guys.
Turnover after turnover- and all of a sudden the Blazers lead. Kawhi a little too indecisive as well- just take the shot instead of all these unnecessary pump fakes..
Another turnover- Clippers can't even get into the their offense
Finally- pick and roll Harden & Zu, slam dunk by the big fella!
Once again Clippers unable to start their offense as they tried to get DJJ to bring it up, and Blazers' pressure D caused another turnover
Clippers can't throw the ball into the ocean all of a sudden
Half isn't over and the Blazers have *19* fastbreak points to just 6 for the Clippers.
Zu is the only reliable offensive option right now
Big 3 by Batum, Clippers slice it to 5 at the half as Kawhi's last second jumper came too late
Dunn starts the second half over Bogie
There we go. Kawhi friendly bounce on the first bingo, now nothing but net from deep. Now Zu with the and 1 slam on a nice delivery from Harden to tie it!
Dunn the corner bingo- assist Zu. Dunn has done it on both ends
Kawhi hasn't been very sharp with those little J's across the lane so far to start the season
What a X-over by Harden, lob, the jam for Zu!
WOW- superb chase down block by Batum!
Clips turn it around in the 3rd- up 87-82 going into the 4th. BIG block by Lopez as they tried to challenge him again.
CP Threeeee!
Holiday clamps Kawhi's arm who falls awkwardly- thankfully he seems to be okay
Bogie just not cutting it right now- lazy pass gets the Blazers closer
John Collins has been a difference maker. Great job there forcing a jump ball on Grant's drive
That's another nice look by Zu to the cutting Collins for 2!
A couple of turnovers and now the Blazers can cut it to 4 with a 3- gotta take care of the ball
Kawhi drills the 1v1 step back, now the drive and float! That should do it.
Final score- Clippers 114-107. Not the prettiest performance, especially the second half of the second Q, but guys executed well on offense when they didn't turn the ball over. And defensively they did a nice job, lead by Zu, Lopez, Dunn, and the hustle of Collins.
Very good showing too by Harden & Leonard. Zu was huge in keeping the Clippers afloat with those buckets inside.
