CHIPPINESS the Definition from World English Dictionary

Resentful or oversensitive about being perceived as inferior...

"Chippiness" is what broke out in the Rockets-Thunder Game as Rockets PG Patrick Beverley (from the Mean Street of West Side of Chi City and Marshall HS) made sure that Russell Westbrook knew he was playing him at every corner. Beverley again went after Russ taking a TO over half court and from then on we have "Chippiness" everywhere...

After all the dust settled the Thunder leading 56-41 at the break cruised as the Rockets got no closer than five points. KD led all scorers like he doesn't on almost every night with a quiet 42 points (13-16 FT). Westbrook having his issues with Beverley added 24 points and seven helpers. Ibaka hauled in 16 Oranges and tallied twelve points. The Rockets just added fuel to the fire and OKC did not let up behind their leaders KD and Russ.

The Rockets led by James Harden's 28 points, nine helpers, and eight assists with Chandler Parsons 19 points and six boards just fell behind and jacked up Squad looking to prove something after all that "Chippiness".

These two teams are not finished as they will meet in Mid-May when the stakes are way higher. Thunder moves to 47-17 and the Rockets fall to 44-20 as Clutch City finally cools off.
