Gotta love DJ

But no matter how hard they tried, the Clippers acknowledged they’ve heard the talk coming from Barnes and Derek Fisher, who dismissed the notion of a rivalry by pointing to the banners at Staples Center at Lakers All-Access, three nights after the Clippers’ 102-94 win.

"No disrespect to those guys at all, but I really don’t care," DeAndre Jordan said. "…If people talk about us like that, obviously, we’re doing something right."

That was one of the best things he has said.

He’s right, the fact that teams have to say something about the Clippers means that they are successful in one way or another. Lakers have to get off their high horse; I think Fisher has some place to talk about the rings, because he was part of several of them, Barnes on the other hand has proved nothing so he is the last person I expect to call people out.

+1

Derek is also hurt that he got schooled by CP3 last time.

In Fisher's defense

He gets schooled by every point guard every night.

The team was a lot more humble during the Van Exel and Jones era

I liked those guys.

OC Register re: Reggie Evans gets a B

Evans has been like a 250-pound Red Bull off the bench, making up for any offensive deficiencies with tons of energy. It’s not coincidence that the Clippers’ improvement on the glass started when Evans got healthy.

Lakers could use some more humble pie

I guess getting swept in the playoffs last year wasn’t enough…

We need Bill Walton back: "Where would the LA Clippers franchise be without Sean Rooks? Bo Outlaw might be the best pick up of the off season.
