As expected, the Los Angeles Clippers ran through the New York Knicks last night, 111-80. The trip wasn’t a complete waste of time though because some of the Clippers get to shoot a scene for the new Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles movie coming out and DeAndre Jordan managed to put on a dunk show all by himself.
Oh and then there was this one thing that happened at the end of the game. Just something that was quickly figured out. The Clippers head coach, Doc Rivers was missing. A team representative explained why to the media.

Doc Rivers wins the day in more than one way, his team won and he won off the court by having Mike Woodson, a man who was possibly unfairly ousted with the Knicks when the new regime headed by Phil Jackson took over, do the post game press conference for the New York media, at Madison Square Garden.
The Knicks terminated Woodson’s contract after a 37-45 season last year. His career record with the Knicks was a very formidable 109-79 over 3 seasons. Just one season later, they currently sit 14-58 this season under Derek Fisher. A season that will end as the worst season ever in Knicks history.
Successful troll by Doc Rivers.
