That game on Wednesday against the Kings was a killer. We just couldn't do anything right until the end of the fourth quarter. It's a new day and there's a new ball game to play. The Warriors are coming off of a loss to the Pistons. They are hurting a little bit with Maggette and his hamstring as well as Harrington not playing. We need to plat defense for once and not turn the ball over so much. I also noticed in the last game that we just kept walking the ball up the floor. It's to our advantage if we run more, so hopefully Baron and the Clippers make more of an effort to RUN the ball. We must also make an effort to box out and rebound the ball. Biedrins is a good offensive rebounder and we don't want him to get easy put backs off of missed shots.

This is Corey Maggete's first time back playing against the Clippers. We all know that he and Dunleavy didn't always see eye-to-eye. Who knows if that will be extra motivation for him in this game. Baron may also feel emotional playing against his old team. Let's hope that Baron uses that to his advantage.

With all that said let's go out and get our 2nd win on Saturday afternoon.

I think this game will be similar to the Denver game. Another run-n-gun team that pretty much relies on scoring and not so much on defense. After that Kings game, I really don't know how this one will turn out.. Or any future game to be honest. I'm glad we're starting to be competitive all 48 minutes, but something still isn't right.

I hope Clipper fans cheer Corey on. He's done nothing to this team to get booed.

Jackson @ PF?

Clippers should win this game.

I just went by the Warriors starting lineup from their last game

With the way our interior defense was last game I wouldn't let my guard down even if Jackson played PF...

Replace Ricky's face with Azubuike. I still can't get over the fact that we came so close to getting him

^ Tell me about it, I have the fattest crush on Azubuike too. Ricky? Not so much. It'll be good to see Maggette in Staples again, even if it is in a new jersey...I harbor no hard feelings with this guy. And of all the must-wins we've had this season...this is the must-MUST of them all.

Maggette brings it on.

Up early
LETS DO THIS CLIPPER NATION !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1

I literally JUST realized that this was an early game. So now I only gotta wait 2 hours till tipoff instead of 9! Damn, this is just like Christmas

Time to show Maggette a rude awakening!

Welcome back to L.A. CMaggz

Go Clippers!

Maggette will have 30+ points tonight.

Baron will have 20+ pts, 10+ asts to go along with 2-3 stls

^^^
AND THE W.

Andris will have 20+ pts, 20+ rebounds, 5+ blocks to go along with 5+ assists

This should be a fun game. I'm hoping that Al stays out of foul trouble if he's going to be on Maggette, but then again Camby may be on him. I want us to control the boards. We've gotten beat on the boards all but one game (matched Utah with 43 in a 79-101 loss), and coming into this season that was supposed to be an advantage of ours. We also have to step up our defense. That last game was pathetic and we can't come out and have anything resembling that performance today.

I expect Kaman to have a break out game. Won't be surprised to see him get 19/14 with 4 blocks tonight, while Camby chips in 9 points/12 rebounds/4 dimes and 4 blocks himself. Davis should get nearly 30 points and about 8 dimes. Juice will have near 30 points as well. Best part would be the 2nd W to try to get something going.

Andris won't have a 20/20 game with Camby and Kaman down low.

This fire better not interrupt our Clippers game. >.>
