I'm glad Chris is giving the game a go today. Hope DJ is feeling ok. Let's see if we can get a win today.

Is CP3 full recovered from his injury? Will he be on minutes restrictions tonight?

DJ with a monster 1st quarter, 10 points and 11 rebounds ready. We had a good finish to the quarter. Not sure how much CP3 will play. If the game is in hand I'm sure he'll sit.

Alvin Gentry just got tossed from the game arguing Chris Paul's foul. I didn't think it was worth it and I was surprised he was tossed.

from what pels announcers said they thought two diff refs called a T on him for the same thing, not realizing it was at the same time. and you can't just rescind that so off he goes.

We need a trade badly. We needed it even before this skid when we had the best record. Luc as a starter is just not gonna cut it. We were a Harrison Barnes away from being a serious contender.

Austin...how did he pass up a wide open 3 for a somewhat open drive and then missed the layup while his man was face down on the court? lol

We're now down 10 with 4:59 left, I didn't think this game would get this bad

and then he passed up another layup to throw the ball into dj's face, which obviously wasn't gonna work out.

i will say though that i'd rather just trade cp3 if doc puts crawford/austin on the court along with cp3 and seemingly has no problem with him barely touching the ball.

i mean if you're ok with it just trade the guy and get someone who will actually do something else for you since you apparently don't need him to RUN THE DAMN TEAM

btw jamal crawford is 2/14 and still allowed to shoot the ball for some reason. fantastic

they don't just grow on trees though and having become the "in" thing of the past couple years, even the low tier ones are really expensive.

We always make these pushes too little too late. This team right now...we can't even beat the bottom feeders. Doc Rivers has no clue how to get the most out of his players. Our team is not this bad even without JJ and Blake. Embarrassing.

We come up short again and lose our 4th straight game. Speights did have an ok look at a 3 but that's not really shot I want the team taking.

I haven't had much luck during my California visit and I'm still here for another week.

There wasn't really another option, and I don't think Harrison Barnes is nearly as good as people seem to think now because he has the 20 ppg next to his stats. He might continue to develop and be good, but right now he's a jumpshooting below average efficiency 20 ppg scorer, doesn't get to the basket or the line much, doesn't create anything for others, he's just doing a lot of mid-range scoring.
