Blake says he would love to see it.
Much rather see that than another Blake repeat
Expectations are too high for Blake now. He’d have to jump over a bus.

2 on 2. Who do you take?
Jason Kidd & K-Mart (in their prime in New Jersey days) vs. CP3 and BG (right now)
remember Kidd & KMart were pretty dominant for years in their New Jersey days
No, it's the Clip Show!

The earliest Knicks guard Baron Davis could return to action is next week, but even that’s not likely, a source said.

I used to play basketball with Jeremy Lin's older brother when I was in college
The older brother was also a star point guard at his high school but was smaller than Jeremy at about 5’9". He told me his little brother was a good basketball player. I didn’t think he would be this good – he made it to the NBA!
Good for the kid!
No, it's the Clip Show!

Blake's defense has been better of late. Putting more effort on defense.
He’s always a scoring threat.
not true! blake is a way better player all around.
jordan has improved a lot though this year.

Magic Are A Lot Better With A Healthy Nelson
He really doesn’t get enough credit.
Fortunately for Clippers his minutes will limited tonight.
Not Now
However I have watched them with and without him for years
You sure? I thought he was dressed by VDN said he wouldn’t play.
by Michael White on Feb 6, 2012 4:23 PM PST up reply actions
So far no fouls on BG or DJ
need to play it smart the next couple minutes. If we can get through the first with both of them with 0, we will be in good shape
Magic are getting their guards in the paint way to easy
DJ either helps and easy layup for Dwight or doesnt and guard scores
Wow...
Are they even trying tonight?
Clippers // Chargers // Rays // Boise State
"The Lakers do win games. But things can change." - Blake Griffin
Horrible start
Not just bad D, but once again this game illustrates that this Clipper team lives and dies by 3pt shooting. Only way out now is if CP and Blake take over like they did in Utah.
This is getting scary
"Every existing thing is born without reason, prolongs itself out of weakness, and dies by chance" -Jean-Paul Sarte
hmm is D12 owning DJ?
cant watch game now. at work now…
No, it's the Clip Show!
Howard has 12 points, Clippers have 15. Clearly Howard is doing something

"Kenyon Martin, why did you decide to play for the Clippers?"
“They offered me the most.”
Why isn’t that ever the answer?
I've got nothing.
Plus, once you get to a certain age and number of years in the NBA...
money stops being such a big concern for a lot of guys, and it becomes about ring-chasing instead.

You're giving up after the 1st quarter?
We’re still in this, and we have shot horribly. We’ll start making shots, and hopefully win.

get the bad out early that's what i say. we are going to be on fire later.
just keep the game close. 21-30 1st q.
That’s all we’re down by?
Judging from the thread, i thought they were putting a Clippers/Wizards style ass beating on us.
by Michael White on Feb 6, 2012 4:40 PM PST up reply actions
Howard dominating is expected
but can’t give up 12 in a quarter to Richardson
HOw can Magic shot 68%??

Gomes is really annoying.

My god CP
Kick out to Gomes again? you are too kind
Trying to get his confidence back?

C'mon Gomes!
"Every existing thing is born without reason, prolongs itself out of weakness, and dies by chance" -Jean-Paul Sarte
Nice Gomes
have to pass up the open 3 for the long 2…
Does Howard have any fouls?
"Every existing thing is born without reason, prolongs itself out of weakness, and dies by chance" -Jean-Paul Sarte
the Clippers offense is all pick and roll
you would think they could defend it better
I hate Big Baby!

How about we get Dwight to step over someone's face like Kevin Love did to Luis Scola?

Dear Clippers
I know I’m not home watching the game, but can you guys step it up? Just because I’m not watching doesn’t mean you guys need to start losing. Thanks!

Let's just say
none of this can be legally documented.
"Things change when something is taken away from you" -BG32
Yes
except very similar to poetland. The problem is, to get out of Novakainism, you have to play Novak in a 3 point contest. If you win, you can have out. If you lose..

and dwight on the bench...

He did that twice (lost it the first time though)
He needs to do more of that hustling and role playing
down 4 great.
Blake is playing well go to him. Hopefully the outside game will come on..which I think it will.
Paul Rodriguez is alive?
thought he died after AKA Pablo
yes, it was the pinnacle of his career
as anyone’s height would be acting with Mr. T.
LETS DO THIS!

but I think it is a bit wrong to say Foye plain sucks… am I the only one getting a bit tired of it
He hasn't seen much playing time this time around but he kept us in the game

they can’t get in the middle. and when they do they are covered

Ugh, these Magic commentators
“The Clippers have had a really easy schedule so far.” No they haven’t. Home heavy, yes. Easy, no.
I heard that line of bullshit from a Laker fan the other day.
Laughable, really.

We just need to continue to shut down Anderson
"Every existing thing is born without reason, prolongs itself out of weakness, and dies by chance" -Jean-Paul Sarte
With weak D from our bigs he certainly can keep it up.
He’s not even that gifted offensively for DJ to be that ineffective on him. I thought he could handle him a little better. But we’ll see what happens second half.
Hopefully he just cools off in the second half.

Jeremy “The Point God” Lin
