"Clippers Coach Vinny Del Negro called his team out, ripped them, using words like "professionalism" and saying they didn't play like "pros."

He questioned whether some players were more interested in "how many touches" they got. He talked about a lack of focus and not playing hard on defense, "stuff that losing teams talk about."

It was a mouthful after the Clippers dropped a 99-92 game to the Cleveland Cavaliers on Wednesday night at Quicken Loans Arena."
