Conan O'Brien Consoled Steve Ballmer After Clippers Gave Up Late Game-Tying 3

The Clippers beat the Rockets 140-132 in a high-scoring overtime game on Monday night. As they were unaware of future results at the end of regulation, neither Steve Ballmer nor Conan O’Brien was particularly enthused when Marcus Thornton hit a 3-pointer with seven seconds left to tie the game at 122. The late-night host patted the Clippers’ owner on the back to let him know that everything would be alright.

Previously in the pair’s relationship, Ballmer unveiled the new Clippers logo on Conan’s show:
