The Aces opened their 2015 against the LA Clippers and the duo of Donovan Robinson and Ray Ray Francis.

The city had been a buzz all week in anticipation for this opening night. There have also been rumors that some players have been seen out on the town frequenting several casinos late into the night as opening night approached. At least for opening night those distractions didn't seem to distract the players on the court.

The Aces absolutely blasted the Clippers from the get go. They jumped out to a 10-0 lead before the fans could even catch their breath from the opening number by Jennifer Lopez, and never let up. The final was 140-120. Bethea and Harmon were out to prove that they meant business even in the land of fun.

Bethea poured in 42 points/10 rebounds/4 assists. Harmon added 28/10/6. Bush came out of nowhere to go 6-6 from three point land and chipped in 22/6. Jeffries was handing out dimes left and right and went for 14/4/12. With all the offense, the Aces didn't play much defense. But it didn't matter on this night.

If this was any indication of what was to come this year, Vegas had a new blockbuster show in town and it was going to be a fun ride all year long.
