Hawks lose to the injury-riddled Clippers 115-105

By: Lucas Kochevar

      The Clippers were without Blake Griffin and Chris Paul for this game against Atlanta. Atlanta should have come out and handled business but instead they lost 115-105. The Hawks defense was very poor as they couldn't get a good flow on offense and by the time they did, they were already down by 15. They played very poorly until the fourth quarter and they would cut it down but the Clippers would come back and answer. The game was getting into the deep part of the fourth and it was the Hawks vs Jamal Crawford. The former sixth man of the year took over the game and got many baskets when it really mattered in the fourth quarter. He matched the Hawks every time. He was the definition of clutch. Austin Rivers also had a very nice game with 27 points.
