I hope we can get a win. I do know that we play the Blazers tomorrow so I hope that we split with them. I also don't want us to lose 60 so all we need is 2 more wins. I know we can do it.

Good luck tonight guys. Im pumped to get to see Thornton in person tonight. I wanted to get him last year before we ended up winning the lottery. Hes gonna be a beast in this league for sure. Your front court is set for the long haul if you can keep Brand. Again, good luck guys, heres to no injuries and a good game

Is it on KTLA or FSPT? >.> Yahoo says FSPT, and I had it on KTLA which said 2 and a half men are next.

FSNPT, I thought the game was at 7:30 and was expecting Clippers Live but the game was just starting.
Halfway through the first and the Clippers trail Portland 13-17.
Dickau-Ross-Thornton-Thomas-Powell as the starting 5. I guess Maggette is out and I've lost count on the number of starting line-ups.

I remember last time I heard we had 30 different starting line ups. So this might be the 31st

That's just sad. Sounds about right though.
Q-Ross with 10 points in the first quarter. Portland leads 32-24.

Only 8 guys suited and booted tonight for the clips. Powell has 3 early fouls so Fazekas will probably log quite a few minutes tonight.

I didn't know that we only had eight. I guess at this point we're just trying to improve our lottery position. I'd rather that we play hard and lose than just tank.

I agree. I don't mind a loss as long as the guys go all out trying to win. That's how it used to be back in the day. Just play with some heart even if you come up short.
Smush is hot so far. Keep it up.

I've been surprised by Smush, he's been playing pretty well for us.

I think I overheard Tim being out for the rest of the game with a stomach virus? So make it 7. D:
People are stepping up nicely though. Smush and now Dickau shooting it up.

We're not doing too bad. It's tied at the half 57-57

Game tied at halftime 57 all. Real nice play between Dickau & Thornton, Al with the double pump slam. We're lead by the unlikely heroes of Ross (10), Dickau (12), Powell (10) & Parker (12). Thomas has contributed 2 of our 6 3's (we're shooting 6-8 beyond the arc), Thornton has chipped in 5 and Mobley with 2. I look to Mobley and Thornton stepping up in the 2nd half. We're shooting 62% so far. The little guys have stepped up and it's been an entertaining first half. Keep up the good work Clips.

Portland has pulled ahead 83-69 in the 3rd quarter. There was a stretch of 3:50 where the Blazers went on a 17-4 run. 2:53 left in the 3rd, Clippers need to get something going before the start of the 4th.

87-75 Portland at the end of the 3rd quarter. Clippers weren't able to string together a couple of plays or capitalize after a missed shot by Portland to chip away the deficit. So far Powell has a career-high with 17 points and Mobley is starting pick his game up a bit. Thornton is still struggling he is 2-10 from the field.

Hahah Mobley's foot was on the line...
Oh well that was some good effort at the end of the game.
