A new-look Washington team shocked LA Clippers today, winning 80-70. "Wow," remarked LA Clippers coach Bob. "We came in thinking we knew what to expect, but we were sure wrong. [Washington coach] Bob really did his job preparing for the game, and has turned his team around. If they can keep it up, they'll be a force to be reckoned with."

Said Bob, "The players have struggled a bit with our system here. It's nice to see things finally start to sink in. I also have to thank Borenstein. I think some of the players were a bit intimidated coming in, but after he started dominating the whole team rode the wave."

Washington was led by Borenstein (17 points, 11 boards, 0 assists), Hove (14 points, 1 assists, a steal, a block), Taylor (18 points). LA Clippers was led by Brown (20 points, 0 assists, 3 blocks), Patrick (16 points, 2 assists, 2 blocks), Hayes (13 points).

Washington ended their slump at 6 games, and jump to 3-11 and 1-6 at home. They move up to #4 in the Southeast and move up to #13 overall in the Eastern Conference. With today's loss, LA Clippers are now 9-4. They fall to #3 in the Pacific and move down to #5 overall in the Western Conference.
