Coming off a 112-100 victory over the Philadelphia 76ers, the Clippers looked primed to go into Utah and win their 17th of the last 18 games with the Jazz. While the first half was a dominant one for LA, it was their second half performance that eventually got them beat.

Whew. Last night’s game was weird. Like, downright goofy. A total outlier. After showing complete dominance over Utah for the last few seasons, there was hardly a doubt that the Clippers would lose last night. Boy, were we all wrong. It’s disappointing, especially since we had a chance to reclaim the 4 seed in the Western conference. Instead, the Jazz put together their most efficient offensive game of the year and took down our LA squad, 114-108. Here are a few takeaways from last night’s game.
