    Don’t underestimate OKC. They played tough against Spurs other night.

    “No live telecast on KTLA. Tape delay start at 05:30.”

    Are you serious? You folks get tape delays?!?

    I will refrain from telling you how the first quarter is going to avoid triggering spoiler alerts. Tape delays? Seriously? I’m really having trouble wrapping my mind around the concept. This means that genuine Clippers fans should move out of the Southland and get League Pass. I hear Dubuque is lovely this time of year.

    Also, you should trade Kaman for a wing before he gets back. His return will kill your seemingly minimal but actually compelling chances of making the playoffs this year. Subtraction by addition.

    how would he kill out chances ? I agree that we should get a wing but any bench help is needed asap.

    We are not trading Kaman. He is coming off the bench when he gets back and will be anchoring the second unit. Let the opponent throw a double team at him – it’ll only open things up for shooters like Novak and Ricky who is also due back (to form). Kaman could totally transform the whole Clipper bench and until that configuration has been given a chance he is not gonna get traded. Period.

    League Pass has the OKC feed, and their play-by-play guy keeps referring to Al Thornton as “Mardy Collins”.

    You’d think that if he’d read the scouting report, (or if he just followed the association,) he’d understand that the guy knocking down an off-balance jumper over Kevin Durant isn’t likely to be “Mardy Collins”…

    Now the OKC color commentator has authoritatively stated that Nick Collison can shut down Z-Bo on this own, so the Sonics can stop double-teaming.

    I wonder if these guys covered rodeos before the Sonics got to town…

    he also said at the half that the clips bench put up ‘bupcus’.
    i’d have given 100-1 odds against ever hearing ‘bupcus’ in an nba broadcast.
    bupcus or not, at least we didn’t throw this away.
    2 of the next 3 would be great.

    After three quarters, the bench is a combined 0-3 from the field. Makes me want to puke. I hear Stephon Marbury is in L.A. right now and in need of a team…

    Cancerbury may need a team but the Clippers sure don’t need him. Case closed.

    oh stop complaining. At least we got the win. 3 in a row baby! I seriously can’t wait til kaman and rdavis come back. they should have sent qrich back with zbo and mardy. why not put in mike taylor to give him a shot at scoring for our bench.

    stephon would be nice but not his contract or his attitude. only if he was willing to come off the bench.

    Kinda crushing on Eric Gordon as a perma-starter right now. Forty-one minutes, twenty-two points–the same stat line as Randolph.

    Note to Chad Ford: We have no reason to pine for Stephen Curry, thank you very much.
