A game that was back an forth like the Bristol in Nascar came down to the Clips simply making shots and the Blazers missing shots. The Blazers get Max Effort from their Big 4 of L-Train, License to Lillard, Batum, and Bloodline Matthews Jr.. The Clips in return get 110% from Blake, DeAndre, CP3, and Jamal 206 as Clips Lead Man Doc Rivers and Clips Lead Trainer Jason Powell have their Blueprints all over this Clipper Squad.
Blake goes another 36 and grabs ten Oranges with Jamal Crawford adding 25 and PG CP3 going 20 and 13 assists and o much for being on a O2 Count. The Clips his 26 of 31 from the Stripe as they were out shot by the Blazers from the Arc by a +27 Margin. It came down to trading more two's for three's and taking care of the Free Throw Line.
The Blazers get 25 from L-Train and 21 and five helpers from Lillard. Wes Matthews added 15 points and six boards with Nicolas Batum going 13 and seven boards and seven assists. The Blazers did everything right but win the game and they have "Air Tight" all season long at the end of ball games and a lack of depth is starting to catch up to them.
The Clips move to 37-18 and five games ahead of both the Suns and Warriors. The Blazers fall to 36-17 and 5.5 games behind OKC. More importantly the Clips move ahead of the Blazers by leading their division.
