This is a team on a mission. They came out of the All Star break knowing that every game matters from here on out and they've given us two big wins in their first two games. That was absolutely an unwinnable game with the foul calls, the back-to-back fatigue, the Clippers coming out of the break with a re-shaped roster on their home floor ready to make a statement, their Hall of Famers burying every tough shot, their role-players refusing to miss from deep. I still can't believe our guys pulled it off. They had dozens of chances to fold and call it a night and they never backed down. That's the type of win that sticks with you! Next up OKC.

Some people were saying Kawhi Leonard should've fouled Fox at the end of regulation but If you see that play Fox acually has him beaten so badly that De'Aaron could've very easily turned a cheap foul there into an and-1, n a hard foul is barely even gonna look like a basketball play there because of the speed fox was moving n the fact his body is totally shielding his left hand/the ball.. It's probably more risky to foul him there than not..

This is probably going to end up the 2nd highest scoring game in NBA history...

186-184 is the all time highest score, we'll need a high scoring 2nd ot and then a 3rd ot to approach that.

You called it. I am overseas but followed the play-by-play and can watch the game later. Monk hit a career high. In the last minute, I thought the Kings would not lose just for him.

OMG, that was the greatest Kings game I ever watched!! Right up there with the Kings vs Lakers Championship games. Both teams are on FIRE!! I thought the Clippers were hotter than the Kings because they couldn't miss but the Kings keep coming back time after time again and again. I am so fired up after the win...definitely best win of the season against a loaded Clippers team. This could be a preview of Playoffs intensity from the Kings. Monk and Fox were on fire.

Alright I'll say it, that was easily the game of the season. Maybe the best Kings game in 16 seasons. Miraculous win from these guys. I love this team!!

I haven't felt like this since 06 when we tied the series with the spurs and the crowd was chanting loudly for Bonzi.... and even then, you had a feeling we'd eventually lose the series. This is DIFFERENT.

Anyone know why PG sat out the 2nd OT? I heard the Clips broadcast say minute restrictions but he had already played 41 mins up to that point, what was another 5? Regardless, amazing win
