    A good tweet from @patrickmjames: If the Clippers put as much energy into rebounding as complaining they'd by up 12.
  • 5/10/2014 3:47:00 AM Eric Pincus
    Blake Griffin just blocked Durant - Ibaka called for his third on the other end - Clippers playing with the best energy they've had since this game started
  • 5/10/2014 3:47:41 AM melissa.rohlin
    Not sure how Kevin Durant just got around every Clipper player for a layup. #MVP
  • 5/10/2014 3:47:42 AM Eric Pincus
    Kevin Durant up to 21 - Griffin's dunk gets him to 16
  • 5/10/2014 3:48:17 AM Eric Pincus
    Westbrook is in considerable pain on the floor after a hard fall
  • 5/10/2014 3:48:19 AM Mike.James
    Ibaka picks up his third foul, on Griffin. Ibaka has played only nine minutes. Then Durant and Griffin trade down-the-lane drives for buckets.
  • 5/10/2014 3:49:30 AM Mike.James
    Westbrook goes down hard on his left hip on a drive. That's going to be very sore Sunday morning.

    Double techs there - Durant and CP3
  • 5/10/2014 3:50:25 AM Eric Pincus
    Westbrook seems to be OK - just hit a three to tie it up at 55
  • 5/10/2014 3:51:54 AM Mike.James
    Durant and Paul go at each other and get double Ts. Westbrook seems to be unfazed by the hip; he knocks down a three from the top of the key. Tie game with about a minute left in the half.
  • 5/10/2014 3:51:55 AM Eric Pincus
    Fouls update with a 1:06 left in half - Griffin/Davis have 3 for Clippers - Ibaka/Jackson 3 for Thunder
  • 5/10/2014 3:52:57 AM Mike.James
    Good segment with Durant during a break. He says he doesn't like Chris Paul at all on the court, and Paul doesn't like him. But he says he and Paul are great friends off the court.
  • 5/10/2014 3:53:46 AM melissa.rohlin
    Love watching CP3 and Westbrook go against each other. It's like a dream clinic for young point guards.
  • 5/10/2014 3:53:50 AM Eric Pincus
    Yeah, Westbrook is fine

  • 5/10/2014 3:54:45 AM Mike.James
    An effortless drive by Chris Paul, followed by an anything-but-effortless did-I-just-see-that? drive by Westbrook.
  • 5/10/2014 3:54:53 AM melissa.rohlin
    Oh hi, Matt Barnes. Until the second quarter, forgot you were playing. After going scoreless in the first, he has scored 9 pts.
  • 5/10/2014 3:55:00 AM Eric Pincus
    Long 3-pointer from Chris Paul - Durant's misses on the other end - that's the half - LAC up 63 - OKC 61
  • 5/10/2014 3:56:01 AM melissa.rohlin
    Halftime: Clippers 63, Thunder 61. Griffin has 16 points and CP3 has 14 points and eight assists. Durant leads OKC with 21 points on 7 for 13 shooting.

    Final possession, Paul shoots from about 500 feet ... and it goes in. Clippers lead, 63-61, at the half. Fourteen lead changes in two quarters in which neither team allowed the other to get away.

    What's the difference between the Eastern Conference and the Western Conference? The Clippers have 63 points in the first half; the Wizards scored 63 in the earlier game tonight. (Thanks to the telecast crew for that stat.)
  • 5/10/2014 4:04:25 AM Mike.James
    The Clippers would really benefit from some contributions from Redick, who hasn't scored from the field, and Crawford, who is 2 for 8. They need to get something from someone other than Griffin (16 points) and Paul (14 points, 8 assists). ...
  • 5/10/2014 4:06:16 AM Mike.James
    And, as usual, OKC's two superstars are carrying the Thunder. Durant has 21 points, Westbrook 13 with five assists. The game could boil down to whichever team can find some help for the two big guns.
  • 5/10/2014 4:07:45 AM Eric Pincus
    Impressive that the Clippers are up 2 given the Thunder are shooting 54.8% - LAC at 46.8%
  • 5/10/2014 4:09:41 AM Mike.James
    Couple of things I'm not crazy about: the incessant interruption in play of instant replay, and the halftime show on ESPN as opposed to TNT.

  • 5/10/2014 4:13:09 AM Eric Pincus
    2nd half - game back on
  • 5/10/2014 4:14:23 AM melissa.rohlin
    KD has 23 points, nearly twice as many as any of his teammates.
  • 5/10/2014 4:14:45 AM Mike.James
    Durant gets it going with an open 18-footer. Looks like that he could make that shot 98 out of 100 times.
  • 5/10/2014 4:14:51 AM Eric Pincus
    Difficult stretch there for Perkins who is blocked by DeAndre - then called for an offensive foul
  • 5/10/2014 4:15:56 AM Mike.James
    Big-time block on Perkins by Jordan, but it leads to nothing when Griffin's fadeaway banker is short.
  • 5/10/2014 4:18:40 AM Mike.James
    Whole lotta nothing going on for the Clippers on offense as OKC moves on top, 68-65.
  • 5/10/2014 4:19:21 AM melissa.rohlin
    Not sure the Clippers know that the 3rd quarter has begun. They've been totally absent on the offensive end so far.
  • 5/10/2014 4:19:45 AM Eric Pincus
    Thunder under more control to start the third after that stretch that saw the Clippers take a halftime lead
  • 5/10/2014 4:20:04 AM Mike.James
    Thinking it might not be a bad time for Doc to start thinking about a timeout. The Thunder is taking advantage of the Clippers, who seem to standing around too much. ... And just like that, Chris Paul goes coast to coast to cut it to one....

  • 5/10/2014 4:20:45 AM Eric Pincus
    Durant is up to 29 points but Westbrook at 13 - Clippers can live with that
  • 5/10/2014 4:21:34 AM melissa.rohlin
    Blake scores two buckets in a row, cutting the Clippers' deficit to one, 72-71.
  • 5/10/2014 4:22:18 AM Eric Pincus
    Chris Paul upset at a non-call - flirting with a 2nd technical but quickly cools himself down
  • 5/10/2014 4:22:22 AM Mike.James
    Westbrook finds Durant down the lane; Griffin finds Jordan, who is caught off guard and fumbles. LAC maintains control, and Griffin scores from outside again.
  • 5/10/2014 4:22:32 AM melissa.rohlin
    CP3 now has a double-double with 16 points and 10 assists.
