I'm expecting baron and eg to have big games. It will be interesting to see how Blake does vs artest.

I really hope Blake or DJ posterizes bynum tonight. Something about him that rubs me the wrong way. Probably cause he's too cocky for someone who hasn't done anthing.

Again I'm just happy that we can watch this game. I want to see another effort similar to the second half of the Warriors game. We were on then

how the **** is he cocky? the guy doesnt ever say anything.

anyways, Im looking forward to tonight's game.

Bynum is b*tch. he looks like donatello from tEenage mutant ninja turtles.

I cant wait to see Blake dunk over sasha. I really want to see EG also to punish sasha , because last year sasha was punkin EG. NOt no more, big brother Blake is gonna dominate

[PlinkingPanda]

Should be a good game to watch. It's been a while since I've watched a game. D:

[scratch21]

and the Camby injuries begin.....

[clippermitch]

h

Hmmm where do I start? The Shaq incident where he pushes Shaq after he dunked on him, carrying girls over his shoulder at the Playboy mansion, bragging about scoring 42 points on us last year when all our big men were out (he basically did it against Skinner and a very young DJ), getting rid of Kareem as his mentor, and on and on.

He's been hurt the last 2 years and has been stealing money from the Lakers like Kaman has from the Clippers. All I'm saying is a little humble pie would do him some good.

[clipperdrew]

mkwest you do such a great job with the game threads. Major props big homie!

Well I'm looking forward to just getting to see our squad play. Getting to see more Blake play is a huge plus. He was killing Camby in that scrimmage footage.

[scratch21]

Bynum is good. but hes all about himself
he always talks about how HE wants to avg 20 n 10 and be a all star

[scratch21]

I want to see Artest also. from what im hearing is hes been real negative and not fitting in

[ClipperDomination]

Dodgers then Clippers tonight. Can't get any better! I wonder if at any point in this game Artest will guard EG or even BG. Should be interesting.

[hoefnerag]

is telfair playing?!

[scratch21]

is telfair playing?!

nope

[TheNewEra]

This should be good. Bynum will test our bigs Skinner should get some burn.

[DEEP3CL]

I want to see Artest also. from what im hearing is hes been real negative and not fitting in

What you must be hearing is street garbage, because he's not been negative at all.Please explain how he's been negative because that'll be news to us Laker fans.

He's had some ok games so far, but what from whatever you've been getting as far as info is way way off.

Dodgers then Clippers tonight. Can't get any better! I wonder if at any point in this game Artest will guard EG or even BG. Should be interesting.

Would be a great day if Dodgers and Clippers win.

That would be great! but I think we'll have settle with just a Clipper win. Dodger game is over....

[JJ LoDuca]

I'm very excited for this one-- it's the first time I'll see the Clips in action this season! I love the athleticism involved in the Bynum/Jordan matchup, and it'll be exciting to watch Blake for the first time, too. But in the wise words of Ralph Lawler, better to win on the 27th than on the 18th. Still, I don't think winning both times would hurt.

PS- 6 innings left for the Dodgers to come back, have faith Clipper fans, we're good at that


*EDIT: Yeah, so about that faith I told yall to have...go ahead and lose all of it now...no one will blame you.

[iamworthy]

Yeah its been 4 games, and he hasnt mastered the triangle....we better cut him
