LOS ANGELES – Exhale.
The Clippers waited more than a month for this week, finally getting a chance to catch their breath with two days off between games for the first time since their Oct. 30 home opener.
“We’ve been talking about this for three weeks now,” said Blake Griffin. “It’s like that vacation you’ve got planned, and it seems like it’s never going to get there, and now it’s finally here.”
Griffin said the break is “much needed” after the Clippers played 21 games in their last 36 days. He plans on using Monday for treatment and rest before the team gathers for practice Tuesday.
