Game 5: Nugs Clips in Vegas

[Wammy Giveaway]

Does it feel like, whenever a pure small forward starts on the Clippers, their performance immediately suffers?

just came back to my room after the game. watching an NBA game in Mandalay bay sucks. small venue and no box score of any kind. at least some random clipper fan proposed and got hitched on kiss cam but the highlight of my night was talking some serious **** to a group of nugget fans sitting in front of me by the center court front row and having to congratulate them on their win.

Is Matt Barnes done?

Is Matt Barnes done?

I was just about to ask the same thing. He said he feels good phisically (lost some weight, started doing yoga, yada yada), so maybe he just needs to settle down mentally after splitting up with his wife.

In any case, CDR seems to be our main guy right now. Would love Bullock to step up as well.

I think Doc needs to call Ray Allen right now and beg him to join the team. I know he isn't really a small forward, but I don't care- he can at least shoot the ball consistently. I'm not against 3 guard line ups if the Clips are getting nearly zero out of their actual small forwards. If they can't get Allen, than I'd run the Crawford, CP3, and Redick line up out there in the 4th quarter because the other options are miserable. However, I do think that Barnes will improve as his personal situation hopefully gets resolved.
