the probowl
is so stupid, haha. I wanted to go, but so far I’m glad I didn’t or else I’d be missing the clips game.
danilo would've been nice if we didnt have a chance at cp3
Mo, EJ, Gallinari, Blake, DJ wouldve been a beast of a lineup.
That lineup would probably also be a 4 or 5 seed
Gallinari is so good.
Then again, EJ has only played in 2 or 3 games this year.
do they wait for other games to end?
or why do they never exactly start at the given time?

usually starts 15 minutes after the given time.
idk why they do this but I assume its for all the pre-game stuff such as national anthem and introductions

Our Lakers are thumping Minny at the half
they held Ricard Rubio to 1 point didn’t we do better than that?
It'd be pretty funny if...
Darko hit a buzzer-beater in their eye to win the game.
Like a worse version of our loss.

I have the impression DJ has expanded his game by a foot or so

Whenever the bench comes in...
you can kiss any lead goodbye.
Clippers // Chargers // Rays // Boise State
"The Lakers do win games. But things can change." - Blake Griffin
You can actually blame it on Billups
Shitty pass, bad defense on Miller, then passes to Foye, who is ice cold. Great job!
It's Randy Foye...
“ice cold” is implied.
Clippers // Chargers // Rays // Boise State
"The Lakers do win games. But things can change." - Blake Griffin
I admit I was against JR Smith being pursued by the Clips
but I know he’d take all of Foye’s minutes….
doubt he plays
unless it’s a blowout. Foye plays only the 2 spot, and I don’t think Vinny thinks Bled can handle that.
I just hate how were coached!

Jerry Sloan:
“I think if the right situation came along, whatever that is,” he said before pausing to ponder. “I don’t know what the right situation is. We’ll have to wait and see, I guess.”
What is it going to take for VDN to get fired before things get real bad? We can’t afford to waste a full season of CP3 and Griffin on this garbage.

he has 5 points and 3 assists on 2-8 shooting
not a great game, but he certainly doesn’t suck. Please don’t use terms like “sucks balls” on this thread.
as for the rest of you
he is entitled to his opinion. Don’t tell him to kill himself. Doesn’t really make you look mature.

Im pretty sure I was a fan before you were born.
Mr. join date after CP3 joins the Clips.
Formerly Newtybar. Proud member of Club FTR. falconPUNCH! for president!
Now, now
Newton is definately not bandwagon. He has been around for a long time.
We have a very tight-knit community, and most of us know all of the rest of us. So when someone new joins, after the team has finally become successful, some people are resistant.
That said, starwarsfan93 could have been a fan since the Braves days. We have no way of proving otherwise. So innocent until proven guilty. Even if he is a bandwagoner, he could contribute to the community.
i never came on this website before because i liked watching clipper games with my friends and not interact with random nobodies and i actually have a life. but since i am in college, i can’t do that anymore, i gave this site a try, but with these people on this website.they make laker fans look good. and to be clear, i have been a clippers fan the 2000-01 season.
