The Los Angeles Clippers and Dallas Mavericks went at it at the A.A. 214 with emotions running high as the "DeAndre" Game was on tap for tonight. Clips "Big' DeAndre Jordan supposedly had agreed in principle (Handshake Deal) to join the Mavs in Free Agency and then changed his mind. We will never know the whole story but you get it...right?

Meanwhile the Clips came out flying to a 35-27 1st frame lead. That lead was dwindled to one at 54-53 as the Mavs got on the horse behind Dirk Nowitzki, Wes Matthews and Dallas' #1 Donut/Coffee Runner from Wahoos Nation in Justin Anderson.

In the 3rd it was all Mavs as they built a 14-point lead at 84-70 behind a Nowiztki money ball and his 24th point only to see that lead fall to 84-78 at the end of three as the Clips closes the frame on a 8-0 run behind a Paul Pierce bucket and Wes Johnson and a J-Smoove dba Josh Smith money balls!

That 4th frame was all Mavs late as it was too much Dirk and the supporting cast as @Swish41 went 1st for ballot Springfield, Mass with 31 points and eleven boards. He was also 5 for 6 from Cedar Hill, TX and that would be a Dallas, TX south suburb. The Mavs with the game 100-97 Clips right under the 5 minute mark would close the game on a 21-8 run. Matthews would add 25 points as he was 3 for 4 from Arlington, TX.

The Clips had six players in double figures with the Blake Show leading with 21 points and nine boards. DeAndre added 9 points and eleven boards as he went just 3 for 9 from the stripe. Austin Rivers would lead "A Tribe called Clippers Bench" with 16 points as LAC falls to 5-3 with Big D moving to the .500 mark...

Note: Dirk at 28,239 points trails Shaq (28,596) by just 57 points on the NBA All-Time Scoring List for #6 All-Time...the late great Wilt Chamberlain the "Big Dipper" dba Wilt 20K is #5 with 31,419...ouch!
