Rivers and Redick combine for 52 points versus UNC coach

[acc hoops]

Rivers gets career high 28 points and JJ scores 24 as Clips hand George Karl his first loss as coach for Sacromento Kings.
Glad to see Rivers developing. Hope it continues. The two had only 1 turnover.
Clippers are going to be a tough out in playoffs with Paul,Redick,Crawford and Rivers in backcourt.
Jordan is really improving offensively while Griffin is injured. Hanes is a get sub up front. If they get decent production from small forward position Rivers and Redick may be playing against Irving and Lebron in April or whenever NBA finals are played.

The Clips can't hang with teams that play D. Just my view.

Glad to see Rivers doing better. He's fortunate to be with dad.

I see they are in fifth place which would put them with Portland if season ended today. LA does need to move into fourth to have home court advantage.
If they got by Portland they would probably have a high scoring series versus Warriors.
Good news would be not having to face Memphis until finals. That would be type of series where defense may prevail.

Clippers won't be able to beat Memphis or the Warriors. I just don't see them winning a 7 game series against either of those teams. Having said that, I am ecstatic over Rivers really coming alive and JJ has had a great career after everyone gave him $#%^ from other fan-bases. Good for him.

Few players were going to outwork J.J. I thought he would be a decent NBA player, but I never really anticipated he'd be scoring in the teens on average.

Rivers, JJ and Crawford go 7-30 last night as Memphis beats Clippers in low scoring game. Even though Blake did not play you guys are right ,Memphis defense wins out over Clippers offense.
