The Clippers were a happy bunch after putting an end to a 30-year drought.
But there was a limit to their joy, since they believe there's a lot more they can accomplish.

Cuttino Mobley and Corey Maggette each scored 23 points, Elton Brand added 21 points and 13 rebounds, and the Clippers took command in the third quarter to beat the Denver Nuggets 101-83 Monday night and win the first-round best-of-seven Western Conference series 4-1.

Mobley pumped his fists repeatedly in the final minute, and his teammates waved at the Staples Center fans, who stood and cheered as the final seconds ticked off.

"We've got to keep winning," Mobley said afterward in a somewhat subdued locker room.

"I saw what we had in training camp," fellow newcomer Sam Cassell said. "This team was in a lot of games last year. They just didn't have guys to finish games."

I could the Sixers trading AI to the Nuggets, for Miller and Nene...Sixers could use a solid point guard and a guy to help Dalembert, and the Nugs need a guy who can score quickly and often (especially if Melo disappears for long periods of time).
