We are 3-5 so far this month, that just won't cut it. We are now looking up at the Lakers in our division. We have lost the last two home games to start our home stand. Obviously things haven't been good for the Clippers lately. Even though the team hasn't played its best we have still been in games. My feeling about the majority of these losses (put simply) is that we aren't executing at the end of games. It gets really frustrating because the Clippers haven't put full games together and only play well for certain periods of the game. If we want to win tonight we'll need contribution from guys other than Blake Griffin and Chris Paul. I'm hoping that Mo has a good game and Caron Butler can hit some shots.

In all honestly I haven't payed much attention to the Hawks this season. I know that some guys aren't happy on that team and they have a lot of injuries. Josh Smith is putting up career numbers and still isn't happy. What works in our favor is the Hawks played the Nuggets last night and it went to OT. I'm sure the team isn't happy about a 1 point loss. My hope is the Clippers will look like the sharper team and play with energy. We all know the team can play well, they just have to do it. Let's Go Clips!

Don't set yourself up for disspointment, just be happy with the fact that even though it isn't pretty, the team won't turn the ball over too much

Lets get them. We need a win...so hopefully our shooters wake up.

I'm not 100% on this, but Chauncey could be back on the sidelines tonight. Having a familiar voice that the players trust on the bench could help.

We have to win this. Not because we've lost the last two at home but because the Hawks are missing some key pieces. No Marvin or Johnson, and of course no Horford. If we lose this, starting lineup must change.

Vinny didn't have a problem doing this last year which is one of the reasons why I like him as a coach, but it seems he's hesitant to do it now. The second Baron, Gomes, Kaman we're slacking, they got their asses benched last year. Vinny has to incorporate the same type of mentality. I'm tired of this, let the players do whatever they want atmosphere we've created. If guys start losing their starting jobs, they're gonna start working hard to get it back. Plain and simple.

would say must win but been must win case for a while now

CP3 will ditch the mask tonight.

Chauncey is back in LA, but will not be at the game tonight.

I've noticed that we are starting games by giving the ball to DJ. I guess it's to try to get him going.

The shots are falling early

It was a nice move by him. I'd like to see that more often.

Clippers are 7 of 7 from the field.

Wow we still haven't missed a shot 7/7 from the field and 2/2 from the free throw line

Well it's about damn time we're playing like we should be playing. Foye's been shooting efficiently lately from 3. And seeing Butler make his shots and make that play for DJ was a thing of beauty.

If we can keep that up for the rest of the way, then we'll probably win the game

Wow, a good start to the game, I'm liking this

Blake blows the streak.

Joe Johnson hitting his 3s, our lead now is only 2 in the early going

the Run is over. man i sure hope Mo has a big game. we need him to have not a good one but a great one.

We don't need to double Stackhouse.
