3. Mike Smith needs to talk to the team.

Whatever Clippers’ broadcaster Mike Smith said to, or about, DeAndre Jordan worked.

Jordan played last night with an intensity he hasn’t had in while. It’s something this team has missed. Prior to tonight, Blake was the only player really trying or playing hard. Tonight, DeAndre Jordan joined him thanks to Mike Smith.

So, Mike please do us all a favor and do what you did with DJ with the rest of team. Please?
