Doc Rivers: 'Darren Collison and Jamal Crawford combination won us the game'

Los Angeles Clippers coach Doc Rivers has hailed the showings of both Darren Collison and Jamal Crawford, claiming that their combination won his side's game four encounter against the Oklahoma City Thunder.

The Clippers brought the overall semi-final scores back level at 2-2 having edged out yesterday's contest with a 101-99 victory thanks to a strong final quarter.

"Jamal and DC in that small lineup, that won the game for us," Rivers told reporters after the match at the Staples Center.

"I'm not sure we ever used that lineup, but that group won the game for us."

Game five between the two sides takes place on Tuesday in Oklahoma City.
