I hope the Clippers play today. We have a lot of snow on the East Coast so I ope that they are able to play.

Clippers will lose, or will find a way to lose. Yesterday game was too frustrating.

He's in the dog house. The man has rarely played well when he gets time. Might be mostly due to his free throw shooting.

I know I been away for a while. Finals had me tied up. Last night's game was horrible, but not really a surprise at the same time. Tonight we can't overlook the 6ers, they just beat the C's.

Everyone still keep faith. Go Clipps!

Clippers 13 - Thaddeus Young 10

Back to back 3's by the Clips. Gordon & Baron.

3 straight for the Clippers. Gordon drains another.

I sure as heck won't get too excited by this quick start.

But yeah still nice to see us up at this point.

Wow Davis drove to the basket to end the quarter. That's rather surprising.

30-18 at the end of 1. Time ran out on us, which was surprising since Baron is usually likely to take a 3 at the buzzer. He opted to pass to Butler. So far, we are shooting well and rebounding the ball. I hope that last night's loss is still stinging. Big leads are usually never safe, but after last night's debacle, the Clippers know that they have to sustain a high level if they plan on playing to win.

Gooo Mardy! I'm glad he's getting more minutes as of late. I'd just keep Ricky on the bench for the rest of the year and play Mardy and Novak more.

I agree. Mardy may not be the best shooter or the best finisher

but he is nice and steady. He's balanced on both ends of the floor. Anything he lacks on offense, he's going to give you on defense. Can't say the same for some of the others.

Damn stream went down.

I hope we can hold the lead to double digits cause I don't trust this team in the 2nd half. :lol:

Aww friggin hell. Kaman took a half court shot? I need help on my FG%.. ~.~ 18/10 at the half is pretty sweet though.

Kaman doing work while EB is on the bench,

Post #20 » by **mkwest** » Sun Dec 20, 2009 1:41 am

Kaman again with a 60-foot+ shot to hurt my FG & 3PT% in one of my leageus

Clippers ahead of the Sixers 60-47 at halftime. Kaman is simply beasting. He has 18 points (8-12 shooting), 10 rebounds (4-offensive) and 2 blocks. Baron has 13 points and 6 assists on 5 of 8 shooting. Gordon has 10 points on 3 of 4 shooting with only 1 turnover. The team as a whole is 3 for 7 from 3. It's good that we're playing more conservatively than we did last night. I hope that Kaman can keep up his level of play in the second half, because nobody has been able to stop him. Philly's native son, Mardy Collins, has been playing very well in the minutes that he has received.

On the Sixers' side of things, Speights and Young have 12 apiece. Young scored the first 10 points for the Sixers and has only had 2 since. Speights came in after Dalembert got into foul trouble and was very effective for Philly, but has since picked up his 3rd foul. Iggy, bRANd and Lou (1st game back) have been pretty quiet.

The question is who comes out to play in the second half?
