Clippers vs Warriors II Section 5
If you were a new Clipper fan watching the first half, you'd think, "How did the Clips let Maggette leave?" Corey was scorching hot - score, score score! But then, foul, foul foul, whine and sit down. He wasn't alone, Ellis, Curry and the hot shot kid that looks like Darius Miles from afar (if only Darius shot like that) buried the Clips in the first half.
Second half started better, LA seemed to pull together on D, but there were still retro Cliippers offensive moves that could give deja vu a bad rap; run up court, shoot a quick, bad shot leaving them vulnerable to fast break by Warriors.
I know its preseason. I won't name names, but these are the same guys who did the same thing last year and pledged that was in the past. I found myself muttering, "same old Clippers". But then, SOMEONE lit a fire. They rediscovered defense, they started recognizing screens, making sharp passes and hitting shots. Maybe there is hope...
