Probably the one good Western Team we can and also should be able to beat consistently. I don't know if i expect a win but it should be very realistic.

i feel oddly optomistic as well... we seem to match up decent against them.... hopefully humphries gets some burn today, he seems to have success against and annoy griffin.

needless to say, this would be an enormous win for us.

You know D-Will is going to show up...he takes his matchups with CP3 more personally than his matchups with Jeremy Lin.

Again, the question I have is which Nets & which Clipper team will show up.

The Clippers have all the tools to be a darkhorse Finals team in the West, but they're not showing the consistency or the poise of a WCF/Finals team.

They have pretty good highs when they're clicking on all cylinders but they have embarrassing lows when they're not.

We're either going to need to monster nights from 2 of our big 3 or solid nights from all 3 to really have a good game against the Clippers.

If they're playing how they should be playing and we come in with any sort of lackadaisical effort, we'd get embarrassed, however the same goes for them.

They've had losses against bad teams just like we have. Unless one team doesn't show up at all, I expect this to be a tough but still winnable game.

A win tonight would be great for our confidence and would be huge for the trying to get the Atlantic Division.

I'm on the fence on this one. Hump can get under Blake Griffin's skin, but he hasn't played in weeks.

Billups, Bledsoe are game time decisions.

Kris is questionable with lower back pain.

Like this matchup for us.

No one can really match up with Joe Johnson. Deron always takes his games against CP3 seriously. We're coming off a really good win.

Side note: I wish I lived on the West Coast. I absolutely hate 10:30 PM games.

im worried about crawford alot more then paul. if crawford goes off for a big game we are gonna be in trouble. also worried about lopez, this is a team where a few blocks early could have brook go into mr softie mode. we need him to play like he did last game, and not like he did in atlanta.

Did you forget Brook embarrassing DeAndre Jordan the last time the two teams met?

Forget? He probably thinks Lopez was outplayed by Jordan.

brook also played extremely well the hawks game prior to the last one... like it was mentioned in the lopez htread, there ist much rhyme or reason as to when the dominant brook shows up vs. the rm softie brook, other then him getting his shot blocked early or getting beat up early.
