Tony Parker had a quite night as he scored just 10 points. Danny Green struggled to find his shot as he was 2/11 from the field and scored 6 points.

A key moment in tonight’s game was when Matt Barnes and Aron Baynes got into a little tie which sent Baynes into the crowd. The Clippers used that as an energy booster and took control of the third quarter.

The Clippers were excellent from behind the arch shooting 10/18 from the three point line. While the Spurs attempted 33 three points and made the same amount as the Clippers with 10.
