Game Thread: LA Clippers vs NY Knicks.

[mike3]

Every game is the same! we loose but Griffin and Gordon are by far our best players (obviously) and provide highlight after highlight haha where good entertainment we just don't win!

but damn Griffin! 44 points, 15 rebounds, 7 assists was it? imagine if he got the triple double!

[KnicksChamps]

Another knicks fan stopping by....that was a remarkable performance. I mean, I knew he was the best dunker in the NBA, but he makes it look so easy.
44, 15, & 7 are AMAZING numbers for a rookie.

Even though you guys lost, you should keep your head up. You have Griffin & Gordon. You need a couple surrounding players and in a few years, you could make a very serious run.

All I'll say is Griffin is a mahfuggin beast. If those dunks had been against any other team, I would have been jumping up and down. Instead I had my head in my hands

You guys don't deserve that record, but y'all got a VERY nice young core. Good game

P.s: I'm loving the Gordon and Griffin picks I made in fantasy bball so thank you

I'm definitely gonna trade for Griffin now.

Jesus, Griffin is not human.

Another NYK fan, Fire Del Negro, Hire Nelson, Tell B-Diddy to get his ass in shape and it'll be a wrap for the League

Nice youtube clips of the dunks. Do you have the one where blake did the spin move on the fastbreak against gallo before dunking?

Come to the Knicks board and look at the "Keys" thread. I posted it somewhere in there.

You're record is absolutely mind-boggling. So much talent on that squad! Horrid coaching. You guys would do absolute sick stuff in a gimmicky D'antoni-Gentry-Nellie system. No offense at all, but you guys don't play D ANYWAY.

Good game, loved what I saw from Blake.

I watched the whole game but didn't post while it was going on. I'll talk about Griffin after I mention the problems that went on tonight.

We had way too many turn overs that led to Knick baskets and our defense was non existent again. Turn overs and lack of defense have been keys to our loses this season. We had a good night offensively but this game isn't just won on the offensive end.

If Blake Griffin didn't had such a great game I would really be upset. It's crazy that he had like 4 highlight dunks. I think we have a real star in Griffin. This 1-13 start sucks but I think we have a bright future, we just have to build this team the right way.

I turned down a Griffin trade today before the game, Griffin for my (AK47) I knew I should have taken Griffin

[thanumba2clippersfan]

Blake Griffin had the #1 highlight on Sports Center Top 10

[NJPro20]

Griffin is an absolute BEAST!! That had to be one of the best performances I've ever seen, especially by a rookie. Un-F'in-Stopable!

I'm looking forward to seeing him play again, when he's not abusing my team.

Keep your heads up, the future is bright for you guys.

AMAZING!!

[Det the Threat]

Whew, 1-13...

Even with Blake dominating and EJ doing his usual stuff we just can't get a W.
Again all those turnovers and bad defense(especially against 3's) cost us the game.

I think we're in for another 20 win season(if at all) and should look to get rid of Baron and maybe even Kaman(probably needed to get rid of Baron) and pray that those CBA talks are being solved before the draft.
We're probably looking at yet another top 5 pick and there'd be a huge drop off, if those underclassmen decide to stay in college.

[Forte IV]

I have cme to realize that Eric Gordon and Blake Griffin need a third young star to help them. If we keep up losing hopefully a lockout wont occur and we can get some like Harrison barnes. I love watching Gordon and Griffin play.

I see the Clippers finishing ahead of Minnesota and Sacramento after Davis and Kaman come back and provide some support for Griffin, Gordon, DJ, Foye and the rookies. I still expect around 25-30 wins at this point.

[countrybama24]

Why does del negro play Ryan Gomes so much. He averages 30 minutes and doesn't do ANYTHING. Aminu.... 5 minutes? Bledsoe... 24 minutes?

Wtf....

I wouldn't mind that too, but with that possible lockout after this season there might be no Harrison Barnes available in next years draft.

I couldn't agree more. It's good thing that we probably will have a really good shot at either Barnes or Kyrie Irving in the draft. Then, another high pick with the MIN pick the following year. Plus, I think we should try to shed as much salary as possible by getting rid of Kaman, Baron, Gomes, Foye's contract to get cap room for someone like Marc Gasol, or some of the big name FA's in 2012 (CP3, Dwight, etc).

On another note, Blake was slightly "out-Amare-ing" Amare last night, which shows what he is capable of in the future.

[jgustav1]

Foye's contract will expire in 2011-12, so the Clippers don't need to move his contract as much as Gomes and Davis. They may end up stuck with these two contracts until the can move one of them with Kaman, maybe in an offseason package when Kaman will be an expiring contract.
