by teejnut on Mar 2, 2009 7:52 PM PST reply actions  

They have more important things to discuss. Like who played in all those all-star games. It was captivating

by Michael White on Mar 2, 2009 7:53 PM PST up reply actions  

alley opp from BD to camby. next time down BD posts up draws a triple-team and novak with the 3.

by Final692 on Mar 2, 2009 8:20 PM PST reply actions  

taylor = fast but needs more control

by teejnut on Mar 2, 2009 8:23 PM PST reply actions  

id say he needs a trailer who can finish

by Final692 on Mar 2, 2009 8:24 PM PST up reply actions  

Al? don’t think the team is use to having someone push it this hard

by teejnut on Mar 2, 2009 8:26 PM PST up reply actions  

give credit to the spurs transitional defense though.

by teejnut on Mar 2, 2009 8:26 PM PST up reply actions  

yeah they get back, last i saw taylor ran past like 3 guys-4 guys

by Final692 on Mar 2, 2009 8:27 PM PST up reply actions  

can you believe jones only gets paid $55,474 for the year

http://hoopshype.com/salaries/la_clippers.htm

by shoothoop on Mar 2, 2009 8:27 PM PST reply actions  

wow that must be hard to live on for NBA player at least

by Final692 on Mar 2, 2009 8:28 PM PST up reply actions  

ouch. i thought the minimum was higher?

by teejnut on Mar 2, 2009 8:29 PM PST up reply actions  

yeah im not sure why he gets paid so little.
and baron gets to sit on his fat 11 million dollar salary for the year.

by shoothoop on Mar 2, 2009 8:31 PM PST up reply actions  

maybe its a typo? i dont see how they haven’t caught that kind of error by now..

by shoothoop on Mar 2, 2009 8:33 PM PST up reply actions  

yeah hoops hype made an error.

by shoothoop on Mar 2, 2009 8:44 PM PST up reply actions  

when did he sign with the clips? there’s like no way that makes sense. rookies minimum are higher.

by teejnut on Mar 2, 2009 8:37 PM PST up reply actions  

Fred Jones is a keeper.

by CLiPPz WeRD 12 on Mar 2, 2009 8:38 PM PST reply actions  

can't make a shot...

baron davis is 1-7
al thornton is 1-11

by teejnut on Mar 2, 2009 8:44 PM PST reply actions  

Randolph flew home to Indiana after Saturday’s loss to Charlotte to be with his father, who is critically ill, and it is unclear when he will return, the Los Angeles Times reports. (Mar 2)

by teejnut on Mar 2, 2009 8:49 PM PST up reply actions  

3-20 from Al and BD…ugh

by ukdutch on Mar 2, 2009 8:58 PM PST reply actions  

zero spacing for the clips… wide open shots for the spurs

by ukdutch on Mar 2, 2009 8:59 PM PST reply actions  

why didn’t taylor start the 2nd half?

by teejnut on Mar 2, 2009 9:00 PM PST reply actions  

3 open 3s by finley…

by teejnut on Mar 2, 2009 9:02 PM PST reply actions  

and now bonner for an open 3. oh yeah they make all 4 of those 3s.

by teejnut on Mar 2, 2009 9:03 PM PST up reply actions  

I’ve watched almost every minute of every game this year… this is maybe the most depressing- a real chance… I guess- too much hope after the past few games- not a blowout at the half… but I know what is coming and i will sit here, drink and lament

by ukdutch on Mar 2, 2009 9:06 PM PST reply actions  

must be sad

apparently this is on the army channel or something meaning soldiers in iraq can watch this terrible slaughter

by Final692 on Mar 2, 2009 9:08 PM PST up reply actions  

I think...

Al Qaeda of Iraq must force their captives to watch Clippers games before they behead them for the camera and yelling Allahu Akbar! It is the worst type of torture imaginable. I had to flee the game after the third quarter because my eyes were bleeding.

by MichaelCage on Mar 2, 2009 10:21 PM PST up reply actions  

look on the bright side

EJ is probably going to be back for the game on wednesday.

and we dont have much offense without him and Zbo.

by shoothoop on Mar 2, 2009 9:13 PM PST up reply actions  

Sigh.

I know there’s an infinity of players injured and I realize he’s a very important piece that you always want to have in this lineup, but his team needs to learn how to play without Zach Randolph.

by edk3 on Mar 2, 2009 9:21 PM PST reply actions  

we have no offense without him

and not having EJ hurts too

by shoothoop on Mar 2, 2009 9:24 PM PST up reply actions  

nice hops by MT!

ooooo

fred jones with an alley oop to mike taylor on the break.

by teejnut on Mar 2, 2009 9:24 PM PST reply actions  

okay this is...

crap. we got some excitement with taylor’s dunk and al tries to take the glory with another dagger, and he airballs… THEN the team walks and lets someone dunk

by Final692 on Mar 2, 2009 9:26 PM PST reply actions  

Promising signs from Taylor, i forgot how good he is.

by Sam50 on Mar 2, 2009 9:28 PM PST reply actions  

horrible shot selection from thorton.

by shoothoop on Mar 2, 2009 9:28 PM PST reply actions  

taylor and DJ… +7 and +3 respectively. and everyone else is -

by teejnut on Mar 2, 2009 9:28 PM PST reply actions  

Thorn with an ugly shot, allows an easy shot on the other end.. That young man has some work to do on his game

by CLiPPz WeRD 12 on Mar 2, 2009 9:29 PM PST reply actions  

MT's runner is nice...

some ugly lobs… wth?

by teejnut on Mar 2, 2009 9:34 PM PST reply actions  

I don’t think there was a chance of a comeback. Remeber TP was off when we got within 16

I’m sorry but i really hate Tony Parker and the Spurs.

4 white jerseys, Thomas comes up with the rebound… LOL.. Pathetic.

by CLiPPz WeRD 12 on Mar 2, 2009 9:35 PM PST reply actions  

who do we have running the marketing/pr dept? these loud commercials are lame

by teejnut on Mar 2, 2009 9:37 PM PST reply actions  

Probably one of Sterling’s hookers.

by CLiPPz WeRD 12 on Mar 2, 2009 9:38 PM PST up reply actions  

We need...

to start yelling “Play Loud” at the games. I tried it but San Antonio responded with a 11-0 run.

by MichaelCage on Mar 2, 2009 10:23 PM PST up reply actions  

al is frustrating. needs to drive on bonner not take a jump shot! you’re 5-18 tonight stop shooting jumper!

by teejnut on Mar 2, 2009 9:39 PM PST reply actions  

and he’s left bonner and finley open on a few 3s…

he keeps killing me on my fantasy team.

by teejnut on Mar 2, 2009 9:44 PM PST up reply actions  

Maggette 2.0?

Have we found our 2nd coming of Maggette, in Thornton? I love the guy, and I don’t want to give up on him yet, but he just doesn’t seem to be improving.. Reminds me of Maggette in the sense that he’ll get plenty of points, but they don’t usually result in wins.. I guess it’s just too easy to pick him apart with Zach out.

by CLiPPz WeRD 12 on Mar 2, 2009 9:44 PM PST reply actions  

yes...this guy is even more frustrating than maggs

because as of last year, his biggest improvements needed to be, i thought, passing and D…this year, he can’t do anything right…settles for Js…puts his head down and rarely looks to pass

Play Loud?

Its like they barely played at all. Oh well… stick to the plan guys, lets protect those lottery balls.

We need...

to play Sacramento a few more times and lose to them badly…We need to win the Brandon Jennings lottery or Blake Griffin lottery.
