The concert doesn’t end if the Clippers don’t sing
The Clippers have done it again and Vassilis Skountis looks back on their epic comeback and puts Luke Kenard in the same vein as Reggie Miller and Tracy McGrady!
That will be a reversal or – as the colloquialism demands today – a reversal!
I’m referring to the Clippers who did it again against the Wizards last night and proved the pear has a tail behind it!
This is no longer true, as Californians fighting without Kauai Leonard and Paul George reduced these great and spectacular upheavals to science, proving that indeed “no concert ends unless the fat comes out!”
My speciality, as Thanasis Vengos used to say to Lambros Konstantaras in the movie “Lisa and the Others”.
The déjà vu and the millions of victims
Five nights ago in Philadelphia, the Clippers came back from -24 (44-68) against the Sixers and prevailed 102-101.
A prisoner, but there had been plenty of those for the last few years before what happened at dawn today made any headlines…
They had preceded their -25 (34-59) comeback on Jan. 11, 2022 to throw the Nuggets with a score of 87-85.
On March 22, 2021, the Clippers defeated eventual East finalists the Hawks, who were 22 points clear (88-66) but then saw the…radishes on their heads and lost 119-110.
Man and the fulfillment of the rejected
That fall turned out to be… the trailer of the next, which after half a century of patience and courage sealed the first in the chronicle and with it their historic qualification for the finals of the West!
The Clippers turned the hands of the clock (in the sense of meaning a reversal on the night of 18) in the sixth semi-final with the jazz and played their own hard rock, which prevailed 131-119.
From -31 on the Warriors
The Clippers had presented that specialty on April 15, 2019 when they returned in the second game of the playoff series with the Warriors of -31!
The Dubs then led 94-63 and showed they could easily go 2-0, but the Clippers denied the prevailing mood and recorded the win 135-131.
Yesterday the same thing happened again at Washington’s Capital One Arena to prove history doesn’t repeat itself, it just moves on…
Her specialty is saying and writing these!
“I have no words”
Eighty seconds before the break, the Wizards were up 66-31, but the Clippers didn’t give up and found the road that leads from Hell to Paradise by 116-115!
“I have no words,” Badley confessed to Bill from the condition of…stroke!
The Clippers’ epic comeback of -35 is the second-biggest since the 1996-97 season when play-by-play was introduced in the NBA: The same epic pulled off the Sacramento Kings in 2009 against the Bulls while they were ranked 11th in the 2009 season ended One of the upheavals is that of Jazz returning from -36 against the Nuggets in 1996.
The Clippers forced the capitalists to watch the sky fly by: they also saw the so-called nemesis in the face of Luke Kenard, who looked like the reincarnation of Reggie Miller and Tracy McGrady…
I speak by addresses and names so here is the evidence…
When Miller…became a killer!
On May 7, 1995, in Game 1 of the shocking Eastern Conference Semifinals series at Madison Square Garden, the Pacers defeated Nice 107-105 with Miller changing the first letter of his last name…
It didn’t happen for the first time in his career, but that night… Lucifer was spit on and Miller actually turned him into… Killer!
What did the bagasse do? He scored eight points in the last 18”8 seconds, forcing the Knicks, who led 105-99, to see green, red and yellow butterflies!
He put in a shot from 7.25, then stole the ball in the rebound’s pass, scored another three in the cap that put the match on a straight line (105-105) and, for dessert, added two more points with free throws.
Pastoral care without a doubt…
McGrady’s crescendo
Last night, Kenard had seven points in the last nine seconds: a three-pointer from a time-out and a four-pointer from the Wizards’ 5-foot offense, with Bill fouling the Clippers’ blonde guard.
On December 9, 2004 at the Toyota Center in Houston, it took Tracy McGrady 33 seconds to score 13 points and knock off the Spurs’ heads.
The eventual NBA champions were 49” up 10 points and many spectators had started to leave the stands, but those rushing home still had their heads against the wall for a unique one-man lost the show!
The two-time NBA leading scorer (2003, 2004) lunarized and hit four three-pointers, including a four-way game against nobody but against tough defenders like Malik Rose, Tim Duncan and most notably Bruce Bowen.
When the horn blew the final score was 81-80, while the match commentator watched Tmac rage he admitted the obvious…
«I do not believe that»!
And he wasn’t the only one who couldn’t believe his eyes…

President of FIBA Europe Jorge Garbajosa He talked about the NBA Europe project and the clubs ready to participate in this project.
“2027 will be the year when NBA Europe will be operational,” Garbajosa said.
He confirmed the interest of Real Madrid, whose participation had already been accepted, according to media reports.
“We know Real Madrid is interested, the NBA is in direct talks with the club at the highest level.”
Garbajosa emphasized that the aim of the project is to transform the current system in which clubs suffer huge losses. According to him, the NBA wants to cooperate because it sees great growth potential.
For the President of FIBA Europe, the current EuroLeague model means “an irreversible loss for the clubs of an average of 20, 25 or 30 million per year.” When asked if the teams would make money, Garbajosa insisted it was a “good business opportunity” because he said it was “investing in a product with a forecast and business plan that requires profitability.”
Real Madrid are not the only club to express interest in participating. Garbajosa confirmed that “several” teams had reached an agreement following a “crazy” schedule of meetings with investment funds, companies and other clubs in Berlin and London. “The impression is that the process is already underway,” he repeated, describing the project as a “huge boost” for basketball across the continent.
Previously, Barcelona announced whether it would continue to play in the Euroleague.
