The Clippers (13-18 on the road) visit the Warriors, who are 19-12 at home. LAC is favored by 1.5 points.

What are your predictions? Go Clips!

Garland coming off the bench. Sanders starting as Collins is banged up.

Clips cold from deep thus far- good looks though.

Kobe Sanders drills the bingo to break the spell!

Stop the Warriors 3's. They can't make layups, make them rim those out.

Draymond Green is known for his missed bunnies.

And on cue, the Warriors miss two layups.

Dunn for 3.

Dunn there we go- drills the wide-open 3. Now Kawhi just pulls up in a nonchalant fashion and the Clips take their first lead 15-12

Darius Garland makes his Clipper debut- in with 4:48 to go in the first. Mathurin and Yanic in as well

They swarm Garland who turns it over again

Clipper bench offense is stalling- gotta move the ball. Oof Garland his 3rd turnover as he kicks it outta bounds

Lol what? Garland now just passes it right to the Warriors who right the other way for 2

Actually he got it poked away from behind- but man that's 4 turnovers like in 3 minutes

Terrible first Q by the bench guys- Clips down 31-19

Niderhauser misses another driving layup

Nice job by Mathurin with the steal and bucket after the Clips kept allowing Warriors second chances

Clipper defense getting shredded, and on offense can't get much going as the 3's aren't falling

Dunn good move inside for 2, cuts it to 15. Guys gotta do better on those Kawhi doubles- I mean he gives up the ball on traps but nothing positive happens after that.

Yay Garland with his first points as a Clipper after those 2 FTs

First FG by Garland as he throws in a bingo, cuts it to 9

WTH are the Clippers doubling Spencer- allowed Post a wide open 3. That was ridiculous lol.

One of few good possession by the Clips there- barely any dribbling, ending up with Sanders with the easy 8 footer in the lane

Clippers struggle mightily in the first half as very little has gone right, down 56-42.

So far allowing them open 3's AND layups- gonna need to D up much better to come back and win this

Lopez the step back inside, cuts it to 10

Great job by Sanders- pokes it away and then drills the bingo!

Garland almost breaks Santos' ankles there lol

Yanic with the rejection, Garland the bingo- 5 point game!

Now Dunn the steal and slam! Timeout GS!

Niederhauser tried the tombstone dunk a la DeAndre Jordan and got fouled

Garland setting up Yanic with some good passes

Clips now down only 79-77 after 3Q. Gotta keep up this same defensive mindset to get the W in the 4th.

Dunn bingo, now another steal and layup!

Two skippity hop layups, one by Garland and now Miller, and the Clips now lead by 4. Make that 6 as Mathurin should've gotten the and-1 as he banked it in and got knocked down.

These refs have been very pro GS, but the Clippers have been able to battle through.

Why isn't anybody setting a pick for Garland? Same thing with Mathurin there. Everybody just spread around waiting for the 1v1, then Garland overdribbles and it goes off his foot

Miller making some key buckets this game. Now Yanic another block- WOW! Mathurin finally gets a call and 1!

Draymond Green now trying get into it with Yanic, who is unfazed.

Lol Mathurin tosses up a WILD shot that bricks but Yanic knocks it back in to beat the buzzer

Kawhi the bingo, now literally steps through 2 defenders for the layup. No and 1 despite contact, of course. Clips are like a bucket or two away from knocking GS out.

How can that be a goaltend if the ball has no chance of going in?

Miller down the middle unimpeded for the power dunk! Game, set, match! WHAT A JOB by the Clippers in the second half, especially the bench guys Miller & Niederhauser. Dunn was superb, Math was good on both ends, and DJJ with good D as well.

How about new Clipper Norchad Omier with the putback there

Final score Clippers 112-99 as the Clippers played like themselves in the second half. Garland was a bit shaky as expected, but made some good passes and hit some 3's.

Austin Rivers interviewing Kris Dunn- a superb 16-7-7 for the Dunngeon

Lol nice interview with Niederhauser there. Yanic says he want's be "Konan" out there on the court and the more gentlemanly Yanic or Niderhauser off the court.

Why isn't anybody setting a pick for Garland? Same thing with Mathurin there. Everybody just spread around waiting for the 1v1, then Garland overdribbles and it goes off his foot

It's like they thought they were playing with James Harden.

Garland drives more often.

Austin Rivers interviewing Kris Dunn- a superb 16-7-7 for the Dunngeon

That is a great nickname.

Highlights from the game:

That is a great nickname.

It sure is- credit goes to @LuvMeSumMEE who came up with it!

One free throw away from guessing the correct score!!!
