Blake and the Clippers

The Clippers started out the week on a rough note loosing to Milwaukee by the score of 102-78.  The leading scorer for the Bucks was Delfino with 26 points and 9 rebounds.  The leading scorer for the Clippers was Baron Davis with 22 points and 6 assists.  The second game of the week was against Minnesota and they were able to pull out a win 98-90.  Blake Griffin was the high scorer for the Clippers with 29 points and 8 rebounds.  Kevin Love had a double double once again with 18 points and 18 rebounds.

This week the Clippers had a tough schedule traveling to 3 out of the 4 teams they played.  The Clippers were not able to win any of these four games this week.  First loosing to the Oklahoma City Thunder 111-88.  Blake Griffin was the leading scorer for the Clippers with 28 points and 11 rebounds.  The leading scorer for the Thunder was Green with 22 points and 9 rebounds.  The second game was against the New Orleans Hornets, the leading scorer for the Clippers was once again Blake Griffin with 21 points and 13 rebounds.  The leader for the Hornets was the All-Star point guard Chris Paul with 19 points 10 assists.  The score was 98-87 Hornets.  The third game was against the Lakers, the score was 108-95.  The leading scorer for the Lakers was Pau Gasol with 22 points 5 rebounds, the leader for the Clippers was Foye with 24 points and 3 rebounds.  The fourth and final game of this dreadful week was against the Boston Celtics in Los Angeles, the Clippers lost by the score of 99-92.  Paul Pierce was the leader for the Celtics with 24 points and 5 rebounds, Foye was the leader for the Clippers with 32 points 7 assists.

 It was a rough week with no wins, they are far from their goal of having a 50% win to lose record.  If they play well and keep playing together they could reach it by playoff time.  They only have one game this week and it is against the Sacramento Kings on Monday.  The Kings record is 14-43 which is very bad, hopefully the Clippers will be able to pull out a win this week and head into March on a positive note.

  2. Are you talking about two different weeks in the first two paragraphs? That was very confusing. Maybe you want to say the week the games were played at the beginning of the post?
