Clippers Head Into Offseason of Uncertainty
Posted on 15 May 2013 by Taylor Smith.
The 2012-13 season was, in many ways, the best in the history of the Los Angeles Clippers. However, it also feels like a massive missed opportunity, and it may be remembered as just that. They finished the regular season with a record of 56-26; by far the best in franchise history. The next-best record they've posted was a 49-33 mark during the '74-'75 season, when they were known as the Buffal...

Clippers-Grizzlies Playoff Preview: Game 6
Posted on 3 May 2013 by Taylor Smith.
Somehow, here we are. After winning the first two games of their first round series against the Memphis Grizzlies, the Los Angeles Clippers are suddenly facing elimination. They lost the initial two games in Memphis, and followed that up with an awful effort on their home floor in game five. Blake Griffin, who suffered a high ankle sprain in practice in the day prior to game five, was severely ...

Clippers Must Regain Focus Before it’s Too Late
Posted on 29 Apr 2013 by Taylor Smith.
Prior to the beginning of their first-round series, most prognosticators prognosticated that the Clippers-Grizzlies matchup would be a back-and-forth, hard-fought affair likely to take seven games before being decided. Through the first four games, we have no indication that this won't be the case. The Clippers took the first two games at Staples Center, and the Grizz countered by taking the ne...

Clippers-Grizzlies Playoff Preview: Game 3
Posted on 25 Apr 2013 by Taylor Smith.
Armed with a 2-0 series lead, the L.A. Clippers will look to try and bury the Grizzlies Thursday night as the scene shifts to Memphis for game three of their first round playoff series. Following a rather shocking Clipper blowout in game one, game two was more of what we expected between two teams that finished the regular season with identical records, and have gone back-and-forth throughout t...

Clippers-Grizzlies Playoff Preview: Game 2
Posted on 22 Apr 2013 by Taylor Smith.
In game one on Saturday night, pretty much everything that could've gone right for the Los Angeles Clippers, did. In rather stunning fashion, they thumped the No. 5 seeded Memphis Grizzlies 112-91 to take a 1-0 lead in their best-of-seven first round series. The big key for the Clippers was their incredible edge in the rebounding department, where they held a 47-23 edge. That's the kind of marg...

Posted on 20 Apr 2013 by Taylor Smith.
The L.A. Clippers will kick-off the 2013 NBA playoffs Saturday night with a familiar foe invading Staples Center. The Memphis Grizzlies, who finished at 56-26, the same record as the Clippers, will be trying to exact some revenge after losing a hard-fought first round series to L.A. last season. Last year, it was the Grizzlies who had home court advantage in the series, and made some rather dub...

Clippers Edge Grizz, Take Crucial Season Series
Posted on 14 Apr 2013 by Taylor Smith.
The players and coaches downplayed it pregame, but it was evident that the final regular season date with the Memphis Grizzlies was of utmost important to the L.A. Clippers. Led by 16 points and 12 boards from an energetic DeAndre Jordan, the Clippers marched into Memphis Saturday night and got their biggest win of the season, a 91-87 triumph over their Western Conference rivals. The victory pu...

Posted on 11 Apr 2013 by Taylor Smith.
Chris Paul and Blake Griffin led the team with 19 points apiece as the L.A. Clippers continued their march towards the postseason with a 111-95 win over the Minnesota Timberwolves Wednesday night. The win was the Clippers' 31st of the season on their home court, which broke the previous franchise-best of 30. The old record had been set by the 1974-75 Buffalo Braves. Fresh off of their first sea...

Clippers Blow By Lakers, Sweep Season Series
Posted on 7 Apr 2013 by Taylor Smith.
For the first time in the history of the Los Angeles Clippers franchise, you can call them “division champions.” Led by Blake Griffin's 24 points, eight rebounds and five assists, the Clippers toppled their Staples Center co-tenants, the Los Angeles Lakers, 109-95 Sunday afternoon. It's the first time the Clippers have swept the Lakers in a season series since the club moved to Los ...

Which Team Do the Clippers Want to Play in the Playoffs?
Posted on 3 Apr 2013 by Taylor Smith.
The L.A. Clippers have seen better days, as they come into Wednesday's game against Phoenix having lost three in a row and currently sitting in the No. 4 spot in the Western Conference standings. Fortunately, they sit just a game-and-a-half behind Denver for the No. 3 seed, so there's still hope that they can climb back into a more favorable position. The Western Conference is very deep this ye...

Clippers Play Terribly, Nearly Beat Elite Team
Posted on 2 Apr 2013 by Taylor Smith.
Sometimes in the NBA, a good team will be scheduled to play another good team. Monday was one of those nights. Also, sometimes in the NBA, one team will play well, and the other will play awfully. Monday was one of those nights, too. The Indiana Pacers are 48-27, good for the second-best record in the Eastern Conference. This is enough evidence to say with pretty solid confidence that they're a...

Posted on 26 Mar 2013 by Taylor Smith.
The L.A. Clippers will begin a key four-game road swing Tuesday night when they take on the Mavericks in Dallas. The team has won two games in a row (for the first time in what seems like forever), and is looking to build upon a solid 101-95 win over the Brooklyn Nets on Saturday. The trip will take the Clippers through Dallas, New Orleans, San Antonio and Houston before they head home to face ...
