Have we seen the last of Kaman in a Clipper uniform?

Houston was just eliminated from the playoffs, so I hope they go young. I want the wins no matter who is or isn't playing.

Kaman: The future's bright in LA, but I don't want to split time... (with Jordan)

Bill Ingram via Twitter


Well, the question is did he really say that? He did say that he believes that he is a starter in this league.

So no Bledsoe tonight

I hope he didn't pull an Odom or something like that.

VDN hasn't been specific. He just stated that there are standards that the team must abide by. Elsewhere, I read that he missed a team function.

My guess is that he possibly overslept and missed this morning's shoot-around and will be subsequently suspended for tonight's game.

That should help since we will be missing some guys.

If Blake can secure 31 boards in the final 2 games, he will have pulled down a thousand for the season.

We're not fighting for rebounds the way that Houston is.

We need to play hard all 48 minutes, not so sure I'm seeing that yet.

25-18 Rockets after 1. Lackluster quarter for the Clippers.

We're down 25-18 after the first quarter. We started well but Rockets came on as the game went on. Rockets were getting all the loose balls and rebounds while we started to miss shots. I really feel like we shouldn't be down 7.

We need more ball movement, I'm seeing too many ISOs and jumpers
