Great pics for the Clippers Illastrate, I wish that this game would be televised. Too bad you couldn't put up any of those ugly Thunder uniforms.

lol nicely done.

Very nice work, illa! I'm a fan of the Camby mugshot in particular.

Once again, good job man.

Camby has some sort of heel injury, so I'm not sure he'll play, but hopefully he'll be ready to go. I'm a little anxious to see how the team performs. I hope that we have that same hunger and intensity and can give OKC a loss on their home debut. A few of the guys are a little banged up, but all that means is there will be more opportunities for others. I'm looking for Kaman to bounce back and have a respectable showing. He had the toughest matchups when we played the Lakers. This should be an easier task for him and hopefully he'll be more in tune with the flow of the game.

Thanks, man. But yeah, Camby was slated to be out 4-5 days last Friday, so it's possible he'll be playing Tomorrow, but wouldn't bet on it. I'm looking forward to see what DeAndre can do should he get extended minutes. Also, I hope Gordon plays.

Little injury report from another forum going into tomorrow's game.

Dunleavy had to make some adjustments at practice, given the sudden rash of injuries. Not practicing were Marcus Camby (bruised right heel), Paul Davis (sprained finger), Jordan (sore leg) and Tim Thomas (strained left groin). Camby could be out four or five days.

Gordon (sprained ankle) is rounding into form. He practiced for about an hour and was not limited in what he could do. Dunleavy said he thought Gordon would be able to play this week.

DJ & Taylor are expected to see extended minutes due to Barond Davis (Flu), Camby (heel) & Thomas (groin) being ruled out of Tuesday's game.

Gordon & Paul Davis are probable to play.

I would say just rest our starters this game and play our bench vs OKC and still have a 50% chance of winning. But our starters need more work than our bench does Cat, Al, and Kaman really did not show anything last game and more so in Kaman's case showed rust. So we need to give those guys some burn. If DJ is sore and P.Davis is hurt I could see Mcloy picking up both of their mins. I'm in no rush to throw our guys in a game even with a baby injury espcially against OKC. The Laker game was a different story that was the first game and it was against our fellow L.A. team.

As a end result I hope we can at least get one preseason game at full strength to test out the roster and starters. We need to get the games in together for Camby/Kaman just the same as lakers do Gasol/Bynum.

We can't even get a break in the pre season with all these injuries

I hope we're at fell strength by the beginning of the season.

Great opportunity for guys like Gordon, Jordan and Taylor to get some shine with BD and MC out for this one.

Go Clips!

I'm really anxious to see if Gordon will play tonight. BTW, who will be starting at PF? Skinner, probably?

listening on the radio score currently 18-15 Clippers are ahead. Damn this feels so 1950's

I'm not able to listen right now. None of the box scores are updating. I feel like I'm in a Corn Pops commercial. I've gotta have my Clips.

34-24 Clippers, 6:21 left in 2nd qtr. Eric Gordon is playing and has made a basket and a few FTs.

EG had a real big dunk early in the second I believe I think Clippers have a double digit lead right now.


Edit Jelain is ballinnn and we are up by 11

I read Thornton scored our first 8 or 10 points. It's good to know that Gordon is in and active early.

Kaman is still playing like a one-handed rookie. 4TO's

Bring back the reserves!

Mobley and Kaman playing like crap.
