According to the Pistons GT, Hamilton is doubtful and Stuckey (Cold/Flu) is a game time decision.

^That increases our chance of winning unless we find a way to lose this game

This game needs to be one the Clips should win. No Sheed, no AI. If Rip and Stuckey are a no go. Look for the Clips to run wild here. Beware of Dice however, he still got some game like he's 25 on some nights.

Zach has really been struggling, while the rest of the team has been great

Clippers lead 27-23 at the end of 1. I've missed the majority of the first quarter, but I'm glad to see that Davis and most of everybody else is playing well (besides Zach).

I'm not too surprised to see Camby playing. With 14 games left in the season, he must play in 10 of them to collect his full salary. Otherwise he'll be out of at least $500K.

We scored the first 3 baskets and are now up 10, time out Detroit

Egads!
I have been sick in bed today, and just dragged myself to the computer to see how the game is going, only to find the Clippers up at the end of the first !!!
I guess I had better pull myself together and go downstairs to watch the tape.
Perhaps I'd better learn to have a little more faith.

All the Pistons top guns are out tonight, so we should win this one. Should is the key word here

Our lead is only 4

Post #19 » by **thanumba2clippersfan** » Sat Mar 21, 2009 1:06 am

I'm not happy that we let the Pistons back in this game. We are still up and I can only hope that we come out strong and see if we can get our lead up again.

50-46 Clippers at the half. McDyess is always a beast. Zach made a basket with 0.2 left in the half, but I hope he can turn it around in the 2nd half or we move the ball to someone that will get it done. He has struggled the last few games primarily due to personal reasons, but he is not his usual self. So we need to go with a hotter hand. Baron has 15 points (6-8 from the field), 5 rebounds and 6 assists to lead the Clippers.
