For Some Reason, Doc Rivers Thinks Austin Rivers Is The Solution
Basically everyone agrees that the Los Angeles Clippers’s biggest weakness is wing defense.

Blake Griffin Was His Old Bad-Ass Self Last Night
One of the crappier things about the early part of this NBA season is that for much of it, Blake Griffin hasn't really looked like Blake Griffin.

Don't Dribble Near Kawhi Leonard
Spurs forward Kawhi Leonard had himself a game last night, pacing his sluggish team to a win over the Clippers with 26 points, 10 rebounds, and three steals.
