What a way to close out our first b2b2b?

If we would have closed this out without problems I would have given it to Mo or DJ. But this one goes to Mr. Big Shot. He hit the game winner, what more can you say?

Mo for sure.

This goes to Mo easily, he was playing like a demon out of hell.

In other news, I just experienced my first earthquake, I'm on the 3rd floor of an apartment complex, I literally thought the roof was going to fall on me just now.

Mo

Billups looked like he played for the Mavs the last 2 min other than that big shot

I got ahead of myself earlier tonight and was thinking about giving it to DJ or Mo. Billups hit the shot when we needed it, but put us in the predicament in the first place (although only one of those was truly his fault).

I almost gave it to Billups, but stuck with Mo. He said he watched the loss against Utah and knew that he had to get back on the court even if he was in a little pain. For him to come in and score 26 is unbelievable.

MoGotti but w/o Chauncey and his last second heroics we lose so my vote goes to Mr Big Shot!

So it was a 5.0. That's a pretty nice size. Get under a doorway or under a desk if they get too rough. I've have slept through some big ones. The scariest one for me was when I was 5 and coming home from the bus stop. I was walking with my mom and the neighbor's dog took off up the hill with its chain around its neck. We went to tell our neighbor and everything started shaking as soon as she knocked on the door. I took off, because it seriously seemed like their house was going to collapse.

Thanks for the tips, at first I wasn't sure what was going on, it sounded like the engine of an airplane. Then I heard the cups in my cabinet starting to shake, and I kind of came to the conclusion. I was alert to see if I heard any sudden loud noises to just dart outside.

It's very interesting that the dog took off, you know dogs are much more aware of their sorroundings than us, I wonder if they feel uneasy just before an earthquake happens.

Is this even debatable? It's Mo Gotti all the way. Without him, we lose by 20. DJ was the only other Clipper an an efficient game.

Whats amazing is a 20 point differential in +/- between blake and mo.

without Mo, we lose so Im going with him but same with Chauncey so idk im going with Mo though, thought his impact was more despite a game winner from Billups

I had to give this one to DJ. No doubt Mo plyed his azz off, and Chauncey hit the big shot, but DJ played up to his contract last nite. Since I don't expect this type of performance consistently, this has to be DJ's best chance to be "the star". 19, 9, and five, pretty good defense, and DJ helped to make up for Blake's "off-night". DJ's improving, is staying out of foul trouble, and he's even beginning to make some of those free throws, so this game I vote DJ.
