With Thornton gone, Amare doesn't have to be so scared of getting a detached retina again!

Kaman must keep his head in the game.

If Lopez scores another 30, Kaman will be dead in my eyes

haha. thorton was making sure he didn't score 70 that night.

[mkwest]

Kaman leading the break. That's a scary looking thing.

[mkwest]

I love it when EJ takes it hard to the basket.

30-26 Suns at the end of 1. Keep feeding the Hobbit. Lopez is only on pace for 20 points this time. We need to step up in the rebounding department. Phoenix has 12 to our 6. Phoenix is shooting well, so we need to make up for that somewhere. Rebounds can be vital in the long run where every possession counts.

Looks like we're playing better this quarter. I missed the first.

[donemilio21]

EJ is knocking down the 3s. Kaman is good offensively but we gotta be tougher on Amare

Kaman is trying to redeem himself.

Unfortunately the Suns have been too.

[donemilio21]

EJ is on fire!!!!!

[PlinkingPanda]

This matchup is usually fun to watch. We always play at the same pace Phoenix does.

[mkwest]

Kaman with a Camby like tip pass to Gooden for the score.

From interesting game

[TheNewEra]

We are staying with them we can't afford a bad quarter

[mkwest]

58-57 Clippers at the half. It's a fun game to watch. There's been some ups and downs, but it's intense. We seeing some good ball movement. We have 18 assists on 23 shots and only 5 assists. Phoenix has 8 turnovers. Us having less turnovers than our opponents almost never happens. Kaman, Gordon and Butler are all having pretty good night offensively. EJ has been lights out, Kaman has been doing a little bit of everything, and Butler has knocked down a few jumpers.

In order to win this game, we're going to have to out shoot them or contain them on the perimeter. Frye and Dudley are dangerous from outside, and helped Phoenix push into a 9 point lead earlier in the 2nd. We were able to come back, but it's not a given that we'd do it again in the 2nd half.

Come on Clips
