From the Twitter feed of Los Angeles Times Clippers beat writer, Lisa Dillman:
Eric Gordon (sore left groin) doubtful for Monday night’s game vs. New Orleans.
Eric’s numbers have been astounding through six games and his absence makes life far more difficult for a Clippers’ team with little depth on the wings.
If Eric can’t go, expect Rasual Butler to start at the 2, with Al Thornton back at the small forward spot.
The only consolation? The Hornets have their own issues at the shooting guard, with Mo Peterson getting most of the starts, though it appears Byron Scott will go with Devin Brown tonight against the Lakers.

Fuck Gordon, it’s an unwritten rule that you have to take care of your nuts.

Even before this news, most of us knew something isn’t right about Gordon. Dunleavy must rest him atleast for 1 week. Upcoming games are not tough and Thornton & Telfair can fill the void.

Ricky Davis is playin well, we will weather the storm.

I wonder, If AT had a vodoo doll hoping for an injury so he can move back into the starting position

We’re screwed if THornton is back in the starting lineup. THe guy is really that bad.

Don’t worry people, Jason Powell is on the case! Gordon should be back to 85% by mid-May!

No I’m a tad worried about this game, but if we can keep West in check we should be OK. He always kills us in the reg. season. Even when F-Elton was there.
Also, Kevin where is our Brand update? 11 points and 5 rebounds a game. Boy, he made such a smart move didn’t he? He’s a complete afterthought on the Sixers who never needed him.
