This will still be a very interesting matchup with or without Gordon.

Go Clips!

This is the kind of game where not having a stable bench kills us.

Deshawn Stevenson seems like one of those players that will have a career night against us with 10 3pters made.

This will be a tough game with out Gordon. I hope we can find a way to win tonight and/or tomorrow.

no EJ no bueno

Without EJ I don't think we stand a chance. He's the focal pt of our offense and without him we go stagnant.

On the one hand, I have a bad feeling about this game, but on the other, the Mavericks ARE 3-7 in their last 10, with Dirk coming off of an injury. We absolutely have to strike them hard while they're still recovering from their big slump, even if it is without EJ. Dirk will be trouble offensively, but does anyone honestly think he will be able to defend BG? We all know that his strength was never his defense

The Mavericks have Tyson Chandler though and they use zone D pretty heavily. They'll probably just pack it in to shut down Blake and dare the Clippers to hit perimeter shots (like the Warriors last game).

Hope everyone's got their jump shot going tonight.

see this is the exact reason I liked the Kaman for Ben Gordon idea.

Confirmation from Ralph's Twitter that Foye is starting

Clippers at Dallas 5pm on Prime Ticket. Foye will start for Gordon.

When it rains it pours

There's no doubt Mav's will dare us to shoot 3's. Hopefully, we can make them, and limit theirs.

I'm also hearing that Dirk's knee is still not 100% - Blake's definitely gotta take it at him.

Bingo Baron. 5-0 start for the Clips.

I hope we play well, it's just a big blow to have Gordon out close to a month. We can never catch any breaks in terms of injury.

It would suck for him to miss time period, but nearly a month with a brutal part of our schedule coming up is terrible.

Baron to Blake connection starting up early. Half-court lob for the slam.

We have an 11-4 start, let's keep it up

Decent start, but can't finish it like we did Portland.
