Suns star Kevin Durant credited the Clippers for debuting 'The Wall' on opening night.
Just when it seemed like the Los Angeles Clippers would grab a win in the official opening game at the Untuit Dome, Phoenix Suns star Kevin Durant snatched it away. Durant and the Suns took down Los Angeles by a score of 116-113 in overtime to open their season.The game was a close throughout, with the Clippers battled through the entire night. But in the end, Phoenix was just a little bit better.
The Clippers wanted to try something new and so far, it seems to be working.'You definitely can hear the crowd,' said Durant, who finished with a team-high 25 points to go with seven rebounds. 'You know they're excited. They were this close to getting a stop, and then I rose up and shot that and made that. Then it was silent in there. That's one of the best feelings, especially late in a game.'While the Clippers didn't get the win, there was a lot to be proud of.
