NBA Up And Running!

"Sup..." - Kobe

Kobe may have topped Chris Paul in the stat line, the Clippers have the last laugh as the NBA Preseason is off to a running start in Los Angeles.  The Clips took down their in house rivals, toppling the Lake show 114 - 95.  In a shortened season this may mean a little more but I won't be holding my breath just yet as the prolonged lockout and trade drama has been wearing on the Lakers.

As for Rip City, they handily defeated the Jazz 110 - 90.  Wesley Matthews led the way with 17, new signee Jamal Crawford was making things happen off the bench for 8 points and 7 assists.  Check out highlights HERE from the NBA.
