Nick Young and Lionel Hollins happened.

The former was just unconscious chucking his way to his 15-minutes fame and stardom. The latter because of great time management.

These are the kind of games that defines franchises-- the Grizz are one step away from being legit contenders but one step away from going back to mediocrity as well. If they can not bounce back BIG in Game 2 the Clippers will have utmost confidence going back to LA.

That being said, it's funny how the "series" have turned out for these squads. First, LA held the HC advantage for pretty much a month in a collision course with the 5th seed, which of course is Memphis. On the final 2 playdates LA lost that HC advantage after comfortably leading for the first 64 games. Late season choke job? Yes. But LAC stole it right back by playing 1 GOOD QUARTER-- the payoff period of Game One and now the Clips have HC advantage.

i see this one going to a Game Seven actually.
