VS

Time: 7:30
TV: FSN Prime Ticket
Radio: AM 710 ESPN

Starting for our home town Clippers

The Reserves

Clippers Injury Report
Baron Davis (strained right hamstring) and Marcus Camby (inner ear infection) are doubtful.
Chris Kaman (strained left arch) is probable.
Ricky Davis (sore left knee) is out.

Starting for the visiting Cavaliers

Cavs Bench

Cavs Injury Report
Ben Wallace (right fibula fracture) and Eric Snow (left knee) are out.

There has been talk that Kaman might be playing tonight. I hope that he plays but I'm really unsure if he will along with some of our other starters who are out. If EJ really is going to be the starting SF I say good luck to him guarding LeBron James. I hope to see some of the same drive and excitement that our team played with on Saturday. They should be well rested and ready to run.

Good luck, Clippers!
I hope Kaman and EJ are both playing.
(Too bad about Camby's problem being an inner ear thing --- that can result in vertigo that makes you think you'd rather be dead, and can screw up your balance --- I wish him all the best and hope he is completely recovered as soon as possible.)
I'm taping this one, and will see it first thing in the morning, as usual for the home games.

Gordon guarding Lebron? :nonono:

BTW Baron, Marcus and Kaman will be in uniform and ready to go tonight. :clap:

Kaman will be starting tonight.

Why is Kaman starting if he hasn't played since November?

Kaman starting? :crazy:

LeBron with a vicious block on Baron.

13-11 Clippers through the first 6 minutes of action. So far, so good. We've had some bad passes where we tried to force things, but we're looking good out there. Defensive effort is going well so far. We've forced a couple turnovers and also have a few deflections.

Nice fake by Al on James, but he couldn't get the shot to fall.

Yeah that was nice but maybe he was too open. :lol:

Zbo staying aggressive early and often.

needed to make that EJ.

Gordon = shake-n-bake 2.0

24-17 Clippers at the end of 1. Randolph and EJ show as usaual. They combined for 18 of our 24. Thornton is continuing on his quest to hit the boards harder. He has 5 rebounds already. James finished the quarter off with a dunk, but the rest of his 5 points have come from the line. We played pretty good, but we definitely could have shot better.

Bingo! Novak puts us up by 12. Assist from Kaman.

Baron drives to the hoop for the easy layin. Clips up 12 with 5:30 left in the half. 36-24.

Lebron is pretty much unstoppable in the post area. :sigh:

We just need to make a few more baskets, Cavs keep missing shots

A cutting Thornton with the throwdown.
