Clippers get extra motivation for Game 6 from Rockets and email of TV schedule

The Clippers didn’t need extra motivation going into their first-round series against the Golden State Warriors. They knew they were underdogs as the eighth-seeded team, but, according to Las Vegas sportsbooks, they were the biggest underdogs in an NBA playoff series in more than 30 years with 100-to-1 odds to pull the upset.

Improbably, the Clippers have won two games in Oakland, including a historic 31-point comeback in Game 2, to force a Game 6 in Los Angeles on Friday night. The Clippers, however, believe no one is giving them a chance to force a Game 7 on Sunday and are using two examples as motivation going into the game.
