Turning point of the game:

1) Livingston misses a pretty easy layup after driving to the hole. Magic then fast break down court and get fouled by Kaman, who picks up his 3rd foul and Kaman goes to the bench. Result = 4-point switch and Kaman out of the game, who was playing well. Exactly how can someone who is athletic and 6'7" miss layups with such consistency?

2) Breaking point of the game.

Brand gets an offensive rebound with about three minutes left in the game. Clipers are down by several points. Instead of hitting a wide open Mobley beyond the arc, Brand chooses to go elsewhere and the Clippers don't even draw rim.

Comment:

Did Dunleavy finally decide to start coaching again with only 20 seconds left in the game?

can anyone name a young point guard that Livingston has outplayed?

I always wondered why the Clippers didn't like Jameer Nelson when he came out of St. Joe's. The guy was a four year starter who could score the ball.

Why does Brand fade away in the 2nd Half lately?

Why does Coach hate Maggette?

Are these the same questions over and over?

Is Dunleavy mentally retarded? How do you go totally against a game plan that worked the entire first half? What a frustrating game from a terribly underachieving team.

Yeah, I keep hearing how great Livingston is, or will be, but when I see him play against other good (not nearly as hyped PGs), he never seems to outplay them.

It is pretty clear we were the better team but unfortunately the dumber team...

The good news tonight:
1) There are three teams that are worse beyond the arc than the Clips.

2) Denver lost to the Sixers...

3) still thinking about this one...

saw" the game via ESPN play-by-play (sad I didn't ave anything better to do I know)... Looks like Sactown better rethink the Magette for Artest trade (yes I know it is dead...)
