Clarkson goes the distance and SCORES at the half!!

 

[Retroram52]

Some dude just won a grand at halftime at the Quicken Loans arena. Only in America!

Ah Jeez. Mosgov misses a wide-open dunk after a excellent pass by Ingram. That's got to be embarrassing.

 

[Retroram52]

Mozgov misses a short 5-footer jump hook. He is having a crappy night on the O end of the court.

 

[Retroram52]

We are looking like a little tired and the lead is beginning to get away from us.

 

[Retroram52]

Irving with another three and the lead is now 12.
