He just score that points because the main scorer of the cavs are out on the game, I think Cavs are interested anymore to the no.1 seed spot because they are avoiding miami heat once Heat jump in on the play-offs spot. As you will notice, All teams that on rank 7-9 on eatesrn conference are all won today, I don't know if that was a coincident or not. But i love watching those teams because they too much effort just to ensure their spot. I wish that miami heat will get the last spot on the east.

This game is crucial and Heat wins this game and only 3 points lead which is not that high. Well just check out the standing right now and Celtics are on the number 1 spot for the standings already. If the last shot of Cavs wasn't block for sure they won this game or if ever the last stolen ball for Miami was shooted then it won't be long up to OT.

It was just one of those days I guess.
I put Clippers to beat the Rockets and Trail Blazers to win against the Spurs but never thought of so many of the bigger teams to lose. Golden state for one with Stephen Curry having a record breaking 15 points in the first quarter in his career. And having Cavs losing in overtime but then again if they decide to rest their top players what was expected in that matchup.

You should respect the current champion, they are down but not out! Any team with Lebron has a chance and they've proven just last Friday that Boston is not a match for them. I do agree that if they get to the NBA finals (which would be logical) they will face even bigger odds than last year if they play against the Warriors or the Spurs. They both are much better teams and the Cavs haven't really improve that much compared to them.

As for the Clippers, they had a bad season but I think if they get it together in the playoffs they can even reach the West finals, they have a lot of experience and a great coach/core of players. If they fail, I think it will be the end of an era with the big three leaving (CP3, Jordan & Griffin).

As a whole, Im not seeing Los Angeles Clippers had a bad season. They clinched the 4th spot in the Western Conference and that is difficult to achieved if we compare the team to Golden State Warriors, San Antonio Spurs and Houston Rockets. Also some of their games are being missed by their key starters but still able to managed at the top spot.

And surely they will finished this season with 7 game winning streak if they able to pin down Kings in their next game which have a decent chance.

Clippers are really good, they are slowly getting into shape and seeing Blake and Paul healthy again, I guess that combo is nice to watch. They can make good defense against a stronger team, I will not even be surprise if they can beat the Spurs in the playoffs. However, I still believe that the Warriors owned the clippers, AFAIK the Clippers has not won one game against the warriors this season.

They match up good with the Jazz, I see this series is gonna be good, maybe even to a game 7.
