Players scrimmaging at training center 

Post#1 » by mkwest » Wed Sep 23, 2009 5:15 am

Citizen danobaseball of Clips Nation visited the training facility today during a tour with Fox Sports Network. 10 of the guys were participating in a 5 on 5 game. Baron, EJ, Al, BG, Camby, DJ, Rhino, Sual, Bassy and the Kaveman were all present. Ricky has been training for the last few weeks, but was not around today. Training Camp starts next week, but it's nice to hear that 10 guys were able to get in on some action voluntarily.

Good to hear Kaman is finally on the courts. He needs to step it up even more than Thornton.

I'm also glad to hear that the team is scrimmaging against each other, I'm just so excited to see what kind of team we'll have this season.
I've been an LA Clipper fan since 1998 and that will never change. I hate our new logo and jerseys!

I wish there some videos of the scrimmages, but regardless it's good to know the squad is putting in work! 8-)

I wonder if Al was there since he swore off McDonald's and fast food at the end of the season.

This is a video from the arrivals/departures at Lamar's Bachelor Party that the Clippers have denied attending. They stated that they were having a team dinner that was coincidentally at the same restaurant as Lamar's party.

You can see Baron coming out at 5:24 and most of the other guys coming out (Camby, Blake, DJ, Bassy, Smith, Novak, Ricky & Al) at 8:24. This is probably the dinner that Butler was talking about.
