To me this one boils down to Blake Griffin and Caron Butler. Think I will take my time to make a decisions on this one.
I've been an LA Clipper fan since 1998 and that will never change. I hate our new logo and jerseys!

I guess you would have to select other. We only do this for Clipper players when the Clippers win. We don't have a "Star of the Game" when the Clippers lose.

We were on that mission for years. Didn't really have to try hard though. Good luck with the rest of the season. I hope you guys get healthy and back on the court soon.

Caron did a job out there. However, Billups/Paul/Griffin should all share the kudos for stepping up and gutting out this W. BTW I really like the Reggie Evans acquisition. :)

It was a toss-up for me between Billups and Butler. I went with Billups. He started off the game 1 for 8 and finished 4 for 6. He hit quite a few big and timely shots for us in the 3rd to put some distance between us and the Bucks. He was a calming voice to his teammates. DJ was getting ready to throw a baseball pass to either Blake or Paul that would have resulted in a turnover, but Billups kept him in check. Also, it doesn't hurt that he is money from the foul line. The rest of the team was 19-33 from the charity stripe, but when can always count on Billups to score the free points.

This was a SLOPPY game,I'm still not sure if it was worth the drive back & forth. Butler was ok,but Billups was probably the best of the lot. CP3,DJ & Blake were just off.
Thought about Mo, he had energy off the bench again, he just wasn't as good as he has been lately.

I went with Butler, he had an amazing third quarter. Actually, he was poised the whole game, didn't force any shots, played good D. Tuff Juice was the easy choice for me.

I voted for Butler.

He's just a steady vet that knows what he does out there and it showed again.
