A 51-point donkey kicking could only happen to the Clippers

Brandon King

Extremely lopsided defeats are often seen in high school basketball and even college basketball but it is rare to see an nba game where the preseason broadcast lasts longer than the competitive portion of the game itself. Unfortunately for basketball and/or Clippers fans, this was the for their game , and I use that term very loosely. The Clippers were absolutely laid waste to by the Dallas Mavericks 124-73 in a matchup that was settled pretty early on. The Clippers never lead in the ball game and the 4-2 deficit…

Christmas Day NBA takeaways: The Warriors could already be in trouble they cannot get out of

Brandon King

Milwaukee 138, Golden State 99 Another nationally televised game, another trip to the woodshed for the Golden State Warriors.

Against Brooklyn they were ,as a team, connecting on just 37.4% from the floor, including 10-33 from three-point land. They actually shot…
