Lou dropped a team high 18 on them last month. He should come in and take it to the hole against Dikau/Barrett.

That's the question all Clipper fans are asking. He typically doesn't enter the game until the last 3 minutes of the quarter.

BTW, Ross will be starting at the 3 and Corey at the 4 tonight.

Good luck tonight and in the playoff race.

Dalembert has tried to post up on Kaman about 4 times tonight. Usually Dalembert posts up about 4 times a GAME.

Only tracking the boxscore online so I'm not sure if this has happened...
but would it kill Mo to run ONE play for Thad?
Why can't they just post him up one in a while?

LOL I missed the entire first quarter except for the Reggie Evans free throws. So Iggy got a two handed dunk in half court? Congratulations Iggy, welcome to life against the Clippers defense. BWaaahaaaahaaaa

Thad has been playing great D on Al. And are any of you guys getting Clips commentators? They sound pretty pissed that Al got screwed out of the rookie of the month. And they were talkin about the sixers decision to take thad over thornton. They think thad won't ever reach the level Al is playin on.

Thornton has played very well lately (Even put up some assists!) He's going to be a pretty good player, better than I thought 8 months ago. would still take Thad over him though.

I've never seen an NBA full court press for that long. Basically the whole time Evans was in.

Does it amaze anyone else that Dalembert was supposedly a big soccer player growing up, but has such horrible footwork in the post?

Williams D has really been improving lately, particularly pick and roll D.

Thornton:
1 rebound, 1 assist, 6 to's.

WOW, Iggy has been on fire as of late...I could still see him peaking at around 22 ppg in his prime...Without a doubt...Thats more than I could ask for from a number 2 option

His TO rate is under 10 heading into tonight.

1 assist in 15 minutes is pretty impressive for Thornton.

Maybe I should rephrase, he's going to be a pretty good scorer.

That was actually kinda my point....

I think the Clippers color guy is the guy from the Summer League games.

Their play by play guy is about 80.

Thad's amazing.

Great hustle!

Just wanted to stop by and give the 76'ers some props. Ya'll have a promising young team over there. No one's really talking about them, but I were Detroit or Orlando I wouldn't want to play Philly.

Philly will give any team in the East except Boston all the run they can handle in the post-season. Mo Cheeks is a vastly underrated coach. No disrespect to Coach Mike Brown, but I would love for him to take over running my Cavs.

I'd love to see a stat for "percentage of touches in the half court that result in a shot for yourself". Dalembert's gotta be near the top in the league.
