lol we know that. Ralph is just and endearing enthusiastic old man that wanted to retire a few years ago but keeps doing the job cause we're finally good after years of suffering, and yeah I'd kick Mike Smith in the face a lot quicker than it takes you to notice him. Still, that's a bit rich coming from a fan of the team Stacey King announces for :wink:

I didn't watch the game last night. I did know that before the game there was a chance we could lose since we always seem to lose to teams that have players out. It's sad that we lost last night, but not surprising. Plus the Bulls always play tough in the regular season, so I didn't expect last night's game to be easy.
I've been an LA Clipper fan since 1998 and that will never change. I hate our new logo and jerseys!

I think Smith has improved over the years in terms of not being to homerish and his knowledge of the players in the NBA

Smith doesnt bother me.

i know he's had a couple SNAFUs.
but for the most part...knowledgeable of the game and the players. He's a little bit of a homer but not too crazy...played in the league but doesnt overbear you with that.

I know people have been harping on how bad the Clippers look but, the main issue I think is not getting ANYTHING from the starting SG and SF. If JJ isn't hitting his shots, he doesn't need to be on the court. Same with Matt Barnes. Matt's defense isn't good enough right now to have him play extended minutes without being able to buy a bucket.

I'd actually take JJ out of the starting lineup and start Cunningham at the two. He's fearless going to the hoop and he plays pretty good defense. If you're not gonna get amazing offense from Cunningham, at least you know he's gonna be a pest on defense and compete, not the case with JJ who's a liability on defense most of the times. A lot of these games we lost would be wins if we got ANYTHING, I mean ANYTHING from JJ and Matt as starters. Just my two cents on the matter.

Not sure if you have realized, but the Clippers have absolutely killed the Bulls the last 3 out of 4 times they have faced each other before Monday night's game. With one of the games being a 39 point blowout.

it seems like we always catch the bulls when they aren't full strength. Pretty sure that 39 point win was the game after rose went out.
