The Los Angeles Clippers win their opening game beating the Lakers in a real battle. Blake Griffiin led all scorers with 33 and added 8 rebounds. The big stats was the rebounding advantage the Clippers had. Roy Hibbert has 16 and the Clippers as a team hed 59 while the Lakers managed only 39. It was a nice win for the Clippers to start the season. The Lakers look like the better team and probably will show that soon. But, for today the Clippers own Staples Center.
Blake Griffin, Player of the game.
The Lakers Angeles Lakers looked tired tonight. They had played their opener against Portland the night before winning 111-68. Back to backs are hard on a team and the Clippers knowing this had no braggers after the game. As a team they approached the Lakers with pleasantries. There really isn't bad blood between these teams. They know each other well and are generally friendly towards each other.
I'm sure the Lakers will be looking for revenge the next meeting of the two teams.

Yeah you guys had a huge comeback in the 4th. Funny thing was, we clobbered y'all in preseason. Just goes to show you can never tell from game to game what will happen. Keep up with performances like this and you'll win the division. The AI drafted smartly for you guys.

Yes, AI did a great job for us and we are happy winning our opener but overconfidence is a killer and I still think the Lakers are a better team. It should be a fun rivalry for bragging rights at Staples.
