Jamal Crawford has said that the Los Angeles Clippers showed "a lot of growth" in their first-round playoff series win over the San Antonio Spurs.
The Pacific Division side won the deciding game of the series 111-109 to eliminate the defending champions, setting up a Western Conference semi-final with the Houston Rockets.
The guard told ESPN: "If you wrote a script for a movie, I think that's how the ending would be. To have 31 lead changes, this series is going to pay dividends because San Antonio is the blueprint. We showed a lot of growth.
"I think this is the most growth we've showed in franchise history. We still have work to do but tonight we can enjoy and understand what we did."
The Clippers have never progressed beyond the conference semi-finals.
