That sounds terrible.

[Tudalop]

Really small team on the paint for the Celtics. Hope to see another monster night by DJ, and a 'future-MVP-talks' one by Griffin.

[mkwest]

How do you miss that Dudley?

[mkwest]

Blake's feeling pretty good tonight lol.

[mkwest]

Great Blake outlet pass to DJ!

[Neddy]

it's a laugher

[mkwest]

32-23 Clips at the end of 1.

Wayns sees his first action of the season.

[Neddy]

airball? it's still a laugher.

[mkwest]

Collison threw it to the heavens and DeAndre stretched forth his right hand to hammer it home.

[mkwest]

Back-to-back 3-balls by Dudl3y.

[Neddy]

dudley is making his case

[mkwest]

Dudley from downtown Episode 3.

[Neddy]

jeered still can't pass...

[mttwlsn16]

I see dud is being productive.

[mttwlsn16]

Blake looks like maybe on his way to a trip dub

[mkwest]

59-55 Clippers at the half. Doc better chew these guys out for their 2nd quarter performance. We've got worked on the boards. Celtics have a 24-17 advantage with 8 offensive rebounds to our 14. We went the majority of the quarter with Blake not really getting any touches. Players settled for bad shots. If Dudley didn't knock down those 3's that he did, we'd likely be trailing.

[TheNewEra]

Really need Barnes and Crawford to break out of their slump shooting wise.
