Injury Report:
Los Angeles Clippers

Mardy Collins (foot), Baron Davis (stomach virus) and Ricky Davis (tendonitis) are out.

San Antonio Spurs

Tim Duncan (right knee tendonosis) is probable.
Ian Mahinmi (right ankle surgery) is out.

The Spurs been struggling as of late. Still, they can't be underestimate by the Clips. If Pop happens to give TD the night off in this match. Maybe the Clips have a decent chance of winning this one. Otherwise, Spurs all the way.

I hope Duncan gets the night off. We're pretty inconsistent so I'm not even sure how well we're going to play. But we do have a good chance if Duncan sits out this game.

MK in the starting line up you got Novak's picture in Randolph's spot. Just thought I would let you know.

Thanks #2

NP, can't wait for the game to start tonight

Marcus with a foot injury...

Why didn't Baron start?

Looks like we played a little bit better in the second but we just can't defend.

Too bad we can't play against the Knicks defense tonight.

I like what Al has been doing in the fourth

Looks like our offense and rebounding didn't get it done tonight. Spurs only had two turn overs. This thing seemed to be over after the first quarter. Our three rookies did get some PT tonight and Taylor had another good scoring game. Spurs get this one 111-98

Baron sick and Marcus injured again --- sprained ankle, apparently --- the X-ray showed nothing broken.
I don't get the game tomorrow on my League Pass anyway.
Hard to get a crowd out for these game threads at this time in the season with the team in this condition.

I just finished watching the game, having not looked at the boxscore prior to. I'm glad to see that Taylor followed up his 35 point performance with another strong offensive game, but this time against one of the best defensive teams. 73% shooting for him in those two games. Gordon had a really nice alley-oop to DJ, he also was looking good from beyond the arc shooting 4 of 6. Thornton really came alive late and was knocking down everything. You could look at his countenance and see that he was feeling under the weather, so to see him still have a pretty nice shooting performance is nice.

Also, Milph were saying that Zach and Baron are "committed" trimming the fat this summer and getting into shape. Kaman needs to join them. Baron also promised to get all of the guys together during the summer for voluntary non-team sanctioned training. That is something that I think we desperately need to do. We need all of our guys to play together at the same time. That has not happened all year (not that I think Ricky Davis is a real key, but still the fact remains that someone has been hurt in some form at all given times).

The players that we have all have talent that can be successful. The thing is they have to all commit to achieving success.
