When Baron Davis came back a couple of games ago, I couldn’t help but wonder how it would impact the Clippers’ backcourt rotation. Eric Gordon had taken his game to another level in Davis’ absence, seizing control of the offense and assuming a majority of the playmaking duties. Hopeful point guard o[...]
“Just when we thought things couldn’t get any worse,” as one of us ClipperBloggers put it, after the latest Donald Sterling story.
