Well. We just did not shoot well at all, and never gave ourselves a chance to stay in this game. Bledsoe showed some glimpses of his potential and athleticsm, and Sofo played better.

Man I didn't think this game would be worse than yesterdays. Well scoring wise I guess, at least we cut down on turn overs. Aminu had his moments, so did Sofo, and Bledsoe. I hope we can pick up a win here in Vegas.

Well, it could have been worse. We could have lost by 30. Thankfully the bleeding stopped at 29.

Watched a few minutes in 3rd and 4th quarter, not a good time to tune in. I like Sofo and what he brings to the table. Much more comfortable with him as the lead backup to Kaman instead of DJ so hopefully Sofo gets signed.

Other than that, it was hard to watch and judge the rest of the players. I feel like giving up on DJ now since I've seen no growth since his rookie season, but it's only SL. I'm worried about how Aminu is going to develop. He really needs time to develop a shot and that won't come until *hopefully* next season. He's soooooo raw...

Wow, that was a tough game to watch. The guys had absolutely no chemistry, took horrible shots, and played no defense. The few wide open shots they did take, they missed. I can't believe how many unforced turnovers we had. I mean, how hard is it to catch a pass? And the bad dribbling, and the missed free throws...

DJ looks like he hasn't improved, and Aminu didn't look too good either. I hope Gomes is ready for big minutes this season.

John Lucas was looking like prime Jason Kidd out there.

Caner-Medley just trying to make the team before McGrady does :lol:

Damn we keep getting blown out, not happy at all. Saw a few highlights of Aminu and he looked better, only guy in double figures and rebounded solidly again. Things just aint clicking.

Except that FG%. Ouch, but that's the case for all the players on that team. Anyways, I probably will miss most of the game tonight, but I'm sure hoping for a win! Go Clips!

Might catch this game... It was hot as heck yesterday so my laptop was overheating when I was streaming it yesterday. :/

Vinny Del Negro laces into the Clippers' summer league squad with epic tirade worthy of spoken word Grammy.

That picture of Aminu's shooting form looks.. wrong.

Babbitt is playing with a foot injury he got in the first game. It's bothering him and you can tell it by the way he's moving around on the court but apparently the blazers staff aren't to concerned about it cause they are still continueing to play him.

I hope we put up a fight this time.
