This was just a sickening loss. The odds were against us with players being sick/injured, but the damn broken water main or whatever is what really screwed us. We could have still won the game in spite of, but we'll never know how things would have played out if there wasn't a 40 minute delay. Perhaps we wouldn't have cooled off.

Safety is what is most important, but damn if this didn't screw us. Panda, an asterisk goes on your record for this BS tonight.

You are wasting your time. The NBA and its fans look down on the Clippers so you will just get smart ass replies about how the Clippers suck.

Tell me about it, I can't even remember the last time a Clipper got a triple double. We better beat the Grizzlies ass the next time we play them for what happened. And if we had our bigs the Grizzlies wouldn't have had a chance.
I've been an LA Clipper fan since 1998 and that will never change. I hate our new logo and jerseys!

Grizz need their best game to beat DeAndre Jordan, Al Thornton and Brian Skinner. The Grizz may have won but I know who the better team is.


It was reported that the Griz were on our other bus that usually holds the media reps for us, including Ralph and Mike.

If anything positive came out of this, it showed that we are a scrappy team. It's going to take more than a few injuries to stop us. You have to literally flood the arena in order to stop the Clippers.

Wish I had remembered to tape NBA Game Time today --- would have been very interested to hear the league's spin on why, instead of having the game replayed at some point, they chose to bus the Clippers away from the arena literally in the middle of a free throw sequence, let their muscles get completely cold, then bus them back and make them pick up the game more than half an hour later.
Seems like a curious decision to me.

Grizz players were put on a bus as well, and players off court to players back on court was about 34 minutes, IIRC. Only Grizzly to not get on the bus? Lionel Hollins.

Weirdest sporting event I've ever attended for sure.

Yes they do. Then again, that is what they have to do every game night. Go out on the hardwood and do their best to beat their opponent. They can't allow any loss to cause any setbacks. If this team were able to produce a four game win streak then they are damn well capable of doing it again. Don't stop now. Keep going.

Return to Los Angeles Clippers
