The LA Clippers defeated the Memphis Grizzlies 113-105 behind 33 points from Lou Williams.
The playoff dream is alive and well! The LA Clippers defeated the Memphis Grizzlies Tuesday night, by a score of 113-105. This win, which was their 4th straight and 6th of their last 7 games, put them only 1 game out of 8th place and 2.5 games out of 5th in the Western Conference. Despite all the injuries the team has suffered, they still have a very real chance of making a playoff run. Speaking of injuries…
Blake Griffin still looking good
Blake looked good yet again. The star forward dropped 21 points, grabbed 6 rebounds and added 8 assists. Despite only recently returning from injury, he looks ready to play. He even managed to put Deyonta Davis on a poster. You can check that dunk out below, along with all his other highlights!
6th Man
The Clippers other MVP? Lou Williams. The Western Conference Player of the Week is clearly ahead of the pack for the Sixth Man of the Year award and he only built on that lead last night by dropping 33 points off of the bench. Add in his 6 assists and it’s easy to see why Lou is getting All-Star mentions. (Seriously, go vote for this man). Lou might be an appetizing trade piece for contenders, especially since his contract expires after this year. However, as big as he has been for the Clippers, it’s hard to justify trading him if the team believes they really can make noise in the playoffs.
