The Clips currently have the 8th worst record but lots of very loseable games. I know its wrong to root against the Clippers, but I have to.

Don't take it personally Clip fans we are also hoping the Cavs keep losing..

So who do we root for when the Cavs play the Clippers?

Cavs of course. They have the worst record in the league sealed barring an injury to Love.

Meanwhile the Clips could finish anywhere in the 6-10 range. Obviously we want them to finish as low as possible, and an extra win could help them tie or jump a team in the standings.

Thats easy the Cavs. The Cavs are going to be pretty well ahead of the next team in line with less wins, where as The Clips could be close between the 8th and 10 th spots.

Until Eric Gordon comes back it will be tough for the Clippers to win games. I saw Mo Williams play great when Clippers and Cavs played, but I know he has been injured most of the season. If the Clippers are to play without Gordon and Williams I see us losing more games. I don't trust Bledsoe yet as a starting PG.

I think it sucks that we traded the pick because for the Clippers it doesn't really matter if we win or lose. I personally want to get more wins, but it won't have as much impact since there is no reward in a pick. Hopefully with no draft pick coming in the Clippers are inspired to win.

Sorry to rant, but if the team isn't healthy we will probably lose more games. Hard for Griffin to do it all by himself.
I've been an LA Clipper fan since 1998 and that will never change. I hate our new logo and jerseys!

Nice solid loss for the Clips. Should be interesting tonight against Boston. All of the new guys should be playing for both teams.

Isn't Gordon suppose to come back in a game or two? At least he's missing LA and Boston, both likely losses even if he were playing. That's better than him missing games against bad teams like Charlotte, Washington, and us lol. The Clips can still rack up some wins.

Y'all are evil!!!!! :evil:

Us Clipper fans will be doing this same thing next season with Minnesota's pick, so there's no hard feelings at all :)

I hope that you guys draft a couple nice players that can make a positive impact regardless of where your lottery picks end up.

c'mon mkwest, you'd have to know that since we're playing for ping pong balls, we'd want to keep track of how we're doing in that respect. Nobody can take that personally. If anything, most of us were rooting for you up until the trade.

I think you've misinterpreted my post bro. mg said "don't take it personally Clipper fans." I'm saying that we understand completely and are definitely not taking it to heart. "Y'all are evil" is just a joke.

Apparently Gordon will be out a few more games....

I wouldn't mind if he were out with the flu or something, but it always sucks to see a player out with a legitimate injury...even if it's to the Cavs benefit.

I love how guilty we all feel about hoping the Clips do poorly.

I just cant wish terrible things on a franchise like them. Lakers, Heat, Celtics, etc... no problem, but teams like LAC, Mil, Tor, Indy, etc.. I just cant.

Stephen Jackson. Somehow get him at the game and throw a beer at him, and both teams get to lose.
