I sensed an upset today and punted $50 on you guys..

Halfway through the last quarter I realised - 'Oh... that's right, Vinny Del Negro coaches this team....my bad'

Bad luck guys... I feel your pain

We have Gordon, Kaman, and Smith out. When they all come back starting players will go back to the bench. It will be much stronger once the team is healthy.

Yeah, you're right. The problem is that by then it will be too late.

You're right about that, I'm hoping that the struggles will help us out for next season.

There were a few points where I thought that Orlando honestly should not have been in this game, and we just failed to capitalize. Also, there was a crucial point early in the 3rd where Howard had 4 fouls and stayed in. We needed to pound the paint hard and either get him a 5th foul, or get decent looks inside, but we just shot jumpers. That, and Blake having an off-night, and that was really the story.

Wow, Bledsoe seems to be getting worse. He is horrible at running the show. Blake also mailed it in today, particularly on defense.

Oh well on to the game tomorrow. Good to see Diogu have another good game.

PS. VDN is brain-dead for subbing Baron at the start of the 4th.

Yeah, it just seems like major injuries happen to us every year, and we end up blaming them for our bad seasons. We can't be the only team that deals with injuries, so I'm wondering why it hits us especially hard every year.

^I think that's something every Clippers fan thinks about.

If they don't get up for Madison Square Garden then they can't win anywhere on the road.

Game over we lose 101-85. On to my home town of NY tomorrow. Knicks don't play much defense so we should be able to score on them. I hope we are fresh enough to compete and win the game.

wow, best game of the year didn't live up to the hype

Cook missed some shots, but didn't play bad, when he left the game in the 2nd quarter they were up.

He didn't get a real chance again until the game was out of reach.

Blake looked horrible. I'm not sure if he has some injury, or if he just got shut down. He didn't look like his usual self last night.

in Orlando we call it Dwight-icitis, many people suffer from this disease.
