Starting for our Clippers

The Bench that hopefully produces


Bulls starters

Bulls Bench


Injuries
Clippers
Chris Kaman (plantar fasciitis, left foot) out
Ricky Davis (sore left knee) out

Bulls
Andrés Nocioni (mid-back spasm) is a game-time decision
Michael Ruffin (sprained left ankle) and Kirk Hinrich (torn ulnar collateral ligament) are out

Can we make it 4 in a row, that is the question. The last time we won 4 in a row was how we started last season. (and we all know how that ended) It's a brand new season and our guys are playing much better than earlier this season. We're really starting to click on offense. The only problem is that we really don't get much bench production. We are again with out Kaman and Ricky Davis and hopefully our bench will produce. Chicago went into OT with Charlotte last night and lost, hopefully they are just a little more tired than we are. Both teams are coming off back-to-back games. It should be a good one tonight.

Thornton needs to stay out of foul trouble, the rest of the starters need to show up like they did last night and our bench just needs a pulse even if that means 2-4 pts/2-4 rebs out of each guy at their respective positions.

Go Clippers!

This is gonna be tough. Just because our bench is real weak. Bull have some depth on the pine.
And Gordon better have a nice performance cuz hes going to get BOOED for choosing Indiana over Illinois. I dont think there over it yet

I'm gonna have to find a stream of this game since I don't have cable TV anymore. I'll steal mk's glory and post it in the fantasy league if I find one for those who are in a similar situation as me.

But yeah this will be a tough game. Out of the next 4 this is probably the hardest of the bunch. We should be able to have our way inside, but at the same time it's possible for them to beat us from the outside since our perimeter D sucks. We gotta watch their 3 balls and our bench production. Oh, and the obvious of Baron overchucking.

Edit - Link posted on the league. :3 ... Hell yeah! Ralph and Mike announcing.

The Chicago Bulls (Noah, Hinrich, Gooden, Sefalosha, Gray & Deng) play name that tune with tv show themes.

Name That Tune Vol 1

Name That Tune Vol 2

Starting out 5-5

[PlinkingPanda]

Gordon with 2 3's already.

[mkwest]

Bingo! Eric Gordon knocks down his 2nd 3 of the game to gives us a 14-6 lead with 8:39 to go in the 1st.

[thanumba2clippersfan]

14-6 Clippers, we're shooting 6-6 Gordon with 2 3s

[ClipperDomination]

Ball movement works wonders with this team.

Starting out 6-6 FG isn't too bad...

[mkwest]

Baron you've gotta make that.

[mkwest]

Camby is the man.

[mkwest]

Drew Gooden is carrying the Bulls.

[ClipperDomination]

Camby should be killng it on the boards all night long.

What's up with Randolph's and EJ's shot selection last two offensive trips? Not like the Clipps that started out 6-6.

[thanumba2clippersfan]

Gooden is killing us right now

[TheNewEra]

Baron needs to stop shooting so damn much relax. Plus come on Z-Bo play harder.

[thanumba2clippersfan]

What happened to that nice start of ours

[mkwest]

Gooden with 14?

Oooh nice play by EJ!

[thanumba2clippersfan]

We were up 10, now its tied. I'm not pleased with that at all

[ClipperDomination]

Poor ending to a great start. All square at 26 at the end of 1.
