LA Clippers posted a solid 80-63 win over LA Lakers today. "I don't think we left any doubt over who was the better team today," said LA Clippers coach Adnan Bislimovic. "We pretty much did whatever we wanted out there, and I don't think they ever figured out what to do about Minor's play."

It will be a tough task for LA Lakers coach Andreas Helmle to get his team up for their next game. "We really came in believing that we had a shot to win this one, but obviously that didn't happen. They outplayed us from the start, and there weren't too many happy faces in the locker room afterwards."

LA Clippers was led by Minor (13 points, 15 boards, 0 assists, a block), Quarles (21 points, 0 assists, 2 blocks), Boswell (7 points, 9 assists, a block). LA Lakers was led by Jenkins (19 points, 10 boards, 0 assists, a block), Hazan (11 points, 2 steals), Morris (9 points, 8 boards, 1 assists).

LA Clippers stand at 37-8 and 20-2 at home with the victory. They hold at #1 in the Pacific and stay at #1 overall in the Western Conference. LA Lakers fall to 29-13. They drop to #3 in the Pacific and fall to #5 overall in the Western Conference.
