Memo to Chris Paul
Dear Mr Paul,
Please show up tonight. Play consistent. Even better yet have your alter ego The Assassin show up tonight. Thanks in advance.
Regards
isn't one of them enough
Those nicknames have to be stopped.
This should be a Blowout
I’ll be seeing a lot of fans like this

Bobcats were not this bad before. Right?
by lovinglosangeles on Feb 11, 2012 4:07 PM PST reply actions
They lost Stephen Jackson, Tyson Chandler, Gerald Wallace, and Raymond Felton
And got back Corey Maggette and Bismack Biyombo.
just a quick question for Clips fans in LA
how hard is it to get tickets the night or a game, and how much are scalpers charging?
best thing to do is buy a couple days before
you can get a ticket for about $10 online in the nosebleeds. Of course, shipping costs $15 dollars unless you can get e-tix, but oh well
thanks
I hope I got my Odom jersey somewhere
I know people wanna see blake in cp3 sit......
I think blake needs to have a blowout game to boost his confidence maybe this game could do that, I doubt that blake will play that many minutes though!

Some games cp3 and blake have a connection and other games they don't. Something needs to be changed or tweeked starting from the coaching staff.
I feel blake is not playing anywhere near his potential, even though he’s getting decent numbers. Clippers in my opinion need to get him to be more of a scoring threat.
I think they need to teach blake how to move without the ball better, and also position himself to be open when chris needs to make a pass better.

This is only their first year together...
so it will take time for CP3 and Blake to build true chemistry.

realistically
DJ is after Foye. DJ only scorew when someone else creates, while Foye can create for himself
DJ is not an option at all
only if he follows up a rebound or gets a lob
no...
too easy to defend

crowd is so quiet
you can hear the players so clearly
jordan: “gimme that shit!” lol
I have an idea...see if you agree
Even if it’s a blowout, Gomes shouldn’t play…as penance for that pass yesterday and overall sloppy play
Who would you have passed it to
not his fault nobody was open. At least he threw it away from the defensive basket and gave Caron a shot at it.
he had already called one
VDN likely told him not to use the last one in case they needed it (they did)
The only crowd in the stands is CP3's family

OK
VDN,
If you win a championship, you can stay for one more year. As long as we keep getting rings, you can keep getting one-year extensions. As soon as we lose, you’re gone.

It would be difficult to top...
the Clippers winning a championship with one of their starters out for the year, IN SPITE OF Vinny Del Negro’s “coaching”, in the pantheon of the most impressive championship runs. That would be up there with this year’s Giants.
Clippers // Chargers // Rays // Boise State
"The Lakers do win games. But things can change." - Blake Griffin
only advantage giants
would be that they weren’t expected to make, or do well, in the playoffs. This LAC team will be a top seed.
They're also...
the only 9-7 team to ever win a Super Bowl, and the only NFL champion to ever give up more points than they scored in the regular season.

Mullens is a 7 footer, that doesn't like to grab rebounds. likes to stay on the perimeter.
kemba grabs more rebounds than mullens.
Who would win:
The entire Charlotte Bobcats roster, or the Los Angeles Lakers white guys?
Pau
Kapono
