Big game for the clippers

a win here would be a huge bounce back from the disappointing loss, on Wednesday.

Lets own these punks

Mo needs to show Lou who the best 6th man in the league with the last name Williams is.

I fear that this could be the end of Mo as a Clipper

missing shootaround, the phantom injuries that limit him, I was hopeful that he had bought in, but I feel like he isn’t happy.

He was at shoot around

there is a picture posted of him at warmups.

said he missed shootaround with a stomach illness

hmm I missed the last 10 minutes of clipper live

no mention of him not playing, stomach illness . Also video just came up of Mo in the layup line. I wouldn’t read too much into missing shoot around, stomach illness happens.

And don’t get me started on Mo, he couldn’t close a door, much less close out on a shooter. If he’s not hitting, he should be sitting.

Embarassing.

It is ok to play hard and lose, but to sleep walk through a game like this, unacceptable. There is no way Paul will re-sign with this team if they can’t put up better defensive effort and some sort of semlance on offense. They can’t shoot. Period. Mo has his head up his ass.

We can't afford to waste a valuable year of CP3 and BG...

on a horrible, overmatched coach with no system.

Not CP3's fault.

No offensive system.
No bigs with a post game.
No backup 3 that can shoot.
No backup 5 period.

Chauncy’s 3’s covered for alot of the team’s deficiencies.
Now they are glaring.

How can he leave a group that included

Aaron Gray
Jarret Jack
Marco Belli
Trevor Ariza
and others I can’t remember last year?

It is the system and lack thereof on the Clips. Hornets had a better coach and staff with a great system for them. If they had just a few plays other than PnR and Blake post ups they’d be better.

This has to turn into a Blake Griffin and or CP3 show

Tony Parker lit this team up, and CP3 can do the same.

Mo does look pretty winded from food poisoning or whatever, but VDN needs to stick with the hot hand here.

by NewCavsfan on Feb 10, 2012 4:54 PM PST reply actions  

I don't know that this is DJ's fault

VDN is really icing him. 6 minutes… same as Reggie and less than Kenyon

but sadly, until he gets a ring (which won’t happen with the clown we call a head coach), sports fandom at large will refuse to admit that he’s better than Eli Manning.

Behavior modification?

And what is it, if I may ask, is your job description/title?

by UC.Clipper on Feb 10, 2012 5:02 PM PST up reply actions  

I do something called Applied Behavior Analysis

I study human behaviors and ways to modify them. I work mainly with kids with autism but can work with any population that wants to be changed up.

he’s the exact opposite of kaman as far as ball control and passing out of the post

by UC.Clipper on Feb 10, 2012 5:09 PM PST up reply actions  

He is just too small to guard 2s

And isnt athletic enough to guard most modern PGs.

He is definitely an awful defender, but at least I see some effort from him.
