With an ignominious start to the season, the Clippers had to try and right the ship against a big Mavericks team. Unfortunately, they were overmatched by the Mavericks. The most notable bruising came from whoever was guarding Caron Butler as he repeatedly drew quick fouls on Ryan Gomes and Farouq Am[...]

If you thought that Blake Griffin was going to solve all Clippers’ problems, well, that’s obviously not the case. In the second game of the season, the Clippers lost to the Warriors by 18 and the second half of the game didn’t even feel that close. The game’s first possessions started out ugly, as C[...]

After what seems like the longest basketball offseason in history, the NBA starts its regular season on Tuesday. It’s about time.
