Should be a good game to watch. We should have traded Cassell for Jack+filler. Or perhaps Blake+filler since his contract is bigger. I like Portland's back court.
And shame on you for leaving out Oden on that injury list. tsk tsk..

Aw man, I almost forgot about D. Miles!! Last I heard, his agent was lobbying for Portland to activate him, but the team refused. When is my man gonna come back and tear up the league?!

Probably when he loses some weight haha... Last time I saw him on TV he looked pretty fat. His athleticism is pretty much what made him "special".

Yup the game is for Wednesday. With Yao out maybe the Blazers can make a playoff push. I still want us to get one more win this month. I hope tomorrow is when we get that win.

That may be tough. Kaman will still be out.

And apparently we signed Nick Fazekas to a 10 day contract.

It would have been nice to have gone .500 this month. We'd have to have 2 in a row though.
If we play like we did in Boston then there's not much hope. Without Roy, I like our chances, but they are currently beating the Lakers.

Thanks you too.

Your team played well yesterday against the Lakers. This will still be a tough game even without Roy.

I know we're overmatched at almost every position even w/ B-Roy and Oden M.I.A.
Still..
Go Clippers!!

Let's just play hard and see if we can get a win out of this. Just like when we played against Utah. I still want us to get one more win before the month is over.

Halfway through the first Maggette & Thomas have each added 5 for the Clips. Clips trail by 1.

Thanks a lot. You guys have had a rough stretch as of late but have made some impressive runs this season. Good luck to y'all as well. When the Chameleon joins the team next season, you should make some serious noise.
Ralph Lawler (our play-by-play announcer) has been the pride and joy of Clipper fans throughout the years. He's made the losing sting just a little bit less. That Mike Smith guy isn't so bad either

Thanks for the acknowledgment.

26-15 Blazers at the end of the first period. Portland finished the 2nd half outscoring us 15-5. They are shooting just under 53% while we have shot under 30%
