DJJ skies for the rebound, then flies the other way for the layup
WTH Harden inbounds it off of Zu's back who wasn't looking. Clips got lucky Mavs missed the open 3. What a chase-down block by DJJ!
DJJ gives and go with Dunn- nice! Clips up 18-10
That man again! Derrick Jones Jr gets fouled, able to keep concentration as the ball comes loose, tosses up for the and 1!
That's a welcome sight- Batum the bingo slpash from the corner
A poor end to the first as the Clipper 12 point lead is mostly gone, 34-31 going into the second.
Ouch- Mavs, especially Thompson and Russell, are drill 3's but the Clippers are bricking. Clips now down 6.
They're taking like 10 minutes to review this Mavs challenge on the their foul on Zu- seriously?
LMAO Zu ribs down the loose ball on Dunn's deflection, then goes all the way for a smooth layup, and 1!
Zu what a force- terrific footwork inside for another bucket
Crafty steal and finish by Bogie past 3 Mavs defenders, now Zu another layup on a good dish by the Beard. Clips retake the lead 44-42
Now Zu returns the favor- inside out to Harden who drills the bingo, timeout Mavs!
JH, drills another with the shot clock winding down!
Dangerous closeout by Flagg on Harden who seems to be okay after landing on Flagg's foot
First FTs by Nico just before the half, Clips up 62-55
Best sequence by Collins this game thus far- steal and goes all the way to lay it in. Now the refs make an atrocious call on DJJ saying his pause move on the break was an offensive foul. Clips are incredulous and challenging.
JC now the nice reverse on the baseline drive!
Big bingo by Dunn to push the lead back to 9
Collins now with 5 fouls in the 3rd- Bogie is in for him. These refs man- they have it out against the Clippers. A phantom foul there on Batum puts the Mavs on the line.
Bogie is becoming more impactful- big steal and not a easy layup there through the lane
Lol Brook Lopez was NOT happy having to switch out to guard D-Lo. Clips lead by 7 going into the 4th.
Now Bogie the rainbow bingo to start the 4th!
Bogdanovic, again! Now the pick and roll to Zu for the monster jam!
Bogie man doing his best impression of Luka Doncic. Making smart plays and drilling 3's
Clips unable to make any shots here, and the game is tied at 108.
The Beard- huge floater to break the tie!
Clippers unable to stop D-Lo in the paint- come on. You've gotta get Dunn in there
Clippers dodge a bullet there as the Mavs had 2 looks to win it and missed- OT!
Zu big time tip in- Clips 117-116, 2 minutes left in OT
Harden, who's had quite the game, drills the bingo, but the Clippers allow Russell to drive to the hoop AGAIN and had to foul him
121-120 Mavs- 35 seconds left, Clips with the ball. A quick hitter here for a 2 for 1 would be nice.
Harden the deceptive pause, then goes bingooooooooooo!
Flagg ties it for them inside over Batum. Clips with the ball, 12.7 left. Need to inbound this safely and then shoot it at the last second
The sea parts and Harden drives in with the floater which they called goaltending, but it's being reviewed
Ball looks like it's at the apex then coming down a little so the call should stand
Call overturned- they say it's a good block by Gafford. Double OT
Batum the heady play on the tip off- gets the layup!
Harden hesitation drive for 2- that's 41 for the Beard!
Another phantom foul by the refs- awful! They say Bogie fouled DLo on the 3, but the replay shows otherwise
Guys are running on fumes here, but a very hard fought ,hard earned win by the Clippers to snap the 6 game losing streak. Game ball has to go to James Harden who had a MVP performance. Zu was terrific inside on both ends & rebounding. Both he and Harden are the constants for the Clippers so far this season- showing up just about every game and delivering most of the time. Great to see Bogie step up as he is capable- MVP of the euro tournament just a few months ago. DJJ with a excellent showing as well.
