CVBL: LA Clippers Dominant in Win Over Oklahoma Cty
Wood was unstoppable today, leading LA Clippers to a 92-80 win over Oklahoma Cty. "I've never seen anything like that," said Oklahoma Cty star Pollard. "Wood just flat-out dominated, and there was nothing any of us could do about it." Agreed coach Bob, "He's an excellent talent with an excellent coach. I'm afraid that we'll be seeing more of him down the road."
Wood refused to get caught up in the excitement, however. "I just did what coach told me to do," he said. "And we couldn't have won without my teammates doing their best as well." While true, Wood certainly increased the margin of victory from a close call to a solid win.
LA Clippers was led by Wood (18 points, 15 boards, 0 assists), Jenkins (23 points, 0 assists), Feaster (15 points, 6 boards, 0 assists, 2 blocks). Oklahoma Cty was led by Pollard (13 points, 5 steals, a block), Smith (15 points, 2 assists, a steal, a block), Schab (15 points, 3 blocks).
LA Clippers are now 21-11 and 11-2 at home. They stay at #1 in the Pacific and hold at #3 overall in the Western Conference. Oklahoma Cty drop to 12-20 after this loss. They stay at #3 in the Northwest and hold at #9 overall in the Western Conference.
