The Clippers have been surprisingly frisky lately. Surprising to me because I just didn't think this team could mesh well together despite the amount of talent they have. However, they have had some guys start to step up. First of all, Chris Kaman needs to be in the All-Star game. Period. He has been solid all year, even when this team was poor at best. Second, they've started to get some big play out of Baron, similar to what he did at Golden State. And third, they've been getting consistent play out of other guys, specifically Eric Gordon, who's scored double digits every game since late November. The bad thing about this run is that it probably saves Mike Dunleavy's job for the rest of the season, which is simply not a good thing for this team.

I know this win was bittersweet for Bill Simmons.

Shitty loss for LA, but nothing to die over.

I know. Sweet because the Lakers lost to the Clippers, but bitter because wins like that by the Clips really make it difficult for him to ridicule Dunleavy's coaching.

This team clearly does not give a fuck about this stretch of the season. It's almost comical.

Exactly. lol, it's almost as comical to see him fall into deep depression about the thought of Dunleavy keeping his job.

I loved his one column about Dunleavy from last year when the Clippers blew a huge lead against the Cavs in the fourth quarter and lost. He just dissected every little thing that happened in that time period in chronological order in this "WTF is wrong with Dunleavy" mode.
