John Collins had a heck of 13-point, 9-rebound game.
3 blocks. 0 turnovers. Played really big in the last three minutes. Had a decent stretch as a zone-buster when Clippers tried it. – 11:46 PM

Out of the timeout, the Clippers score on b2b possessions and the Hawks have gotten disjointed. Miscommunication between DJM and JJ leads to a turnover and now Kawhi is at the line. – 9:46 PM

The Wall/Jackson/Powell trio is a -16.
Jalen Johnson’s 3 gives Hawks 40-30 lead and extends 13-0 Hawks run.
Timeout with 7:52 left in first half. Leonard is coming back in, but that is exactly the kind of stretch that we’ll circle back to when this game is over. – 9:43 PM

Hawks have started of better defensively tonight. They’ve held the Clippers to 10-27 (37%) shooting overall and 1-8 (12.5%) from 3.
Offensively, they’re a little sluggish. They made 11-25 (44%) overall FG and are 1-5 from 3. – 9:36 PM

It’s going to be a grind tonight.
LA leads Hawks 26-25 through one quarter of play.
Clippers actually shooting horrible (37% FGs, 1/8 3s), but they got a lot of attempts in paint (6/15). They can’t be that bad all game. That’s a good sign. – 9:36 PM

And here’s where it gets interesting… Jackson gets Morris and Moses Brown gets Zubac.
So it’s Kawhi, a center, and the Wall/Jackson/Powell trio.
(first return goes well with Brown blocking Young and Leonard finishing a fast break dunk)
LA leads 24-19 with 3:16 left in 1st. – 9:25 PM

How do Clippers respond to avoid a 6th straight loss?

With the exception of the Clippers game he got hurt in, VanVleet’s 35 minutes are the fewest he’s played since the blowout loss to GSW on Dec 18. He had some foul trouble but helps when the bench is producing & the team is playing with the lead. Anyway, he was great again tonight – 6:20 PM
