2013-14 season
With new championed head coach Doc Rivers and their new sharp shooter J.J. Redick, the team was hoping for the best. They were finally getting some talent and it was time to prove themselves. But sprinkle some injuries in throughout the season and the playoffs won’t really go as planned.
In their 41st game, the Clippers win in New York, 109-95 on January 17, 2014, wearing their intensely-blue alternate jerseys. It was their first game of their seven-game Grammy road trip on the east. They earned most of their points the old-fashioned way, having only shot 3-of-20 from three. Blake had a few monster dunks and even a three-pointer. Their record was now 28-13…
Darren Collison started in the place of an injured CP3 in his place, who had 12 points and seven assists. Blake went off for 32 points, essentially dominating the game. DJ had 11 points and 16 rebounds, and Jamal Crawford had a whopping 29 points off the bench. Meanwhile, Jared Dudley had 3 points (Wes?). Matt Barnes, Hedo Turkoglu (first game as a Clipper), Ryan Hollins and Darius Morris combined for 10 points off the bench. Willie Green and Antawn Jamison were DNP’s. What a time to be alive.
