OMG, have you ever heard two announcers talk up a guy who sucks more than these two talk up Q Ross? Then, they have the audacity to say how no one else but them talks up Ross. Well, no shit!

The reason the Clippers lose this game is because Ross has been out there about 20 minutes too much. This loss is all on the Dunleavy stubborness in playing Ross over Thornton, a guy who can give you something. Same as with Maggette last year. It is inexplicable nonsense by an aweful coach.

the reason why the clippers loss is because daryl started the wave. By my count teams have gone on a 35-11 run in the last 3 games

He started that wave right after they closed the gap to 5 and I knew it was over then.
From 219, it looked like Ross did a pretty good job of keeping C.Paul honest.
(1 bucket in 1st half!)
Neither team looked good and up until that late wave, I felt like we had a chance to get back in. But Peja was hitting shots and that was that.

Nice early moment when Kaman got his 2nd foul and pounded his fist on the table. He was pumped. And right before he got his Tech you could see him on the scoreboard jawing at the ref. No idea what he was pissed about.

Half time show was just Clips Dance Team and some kids junior dance team. I can only guess they has a last minute cancellation?

What is up with the retarded hyper dancing guy that wears the 'rental man' t-shirt? They really should be allowed to just ban him for that crap.

Yeah, what's up w/ the Guy dancing in a High school band uniform?!

I really thought we had N.O. on the ropes and then the wave came. I knew there was no way we could come back. Sure enough they score 7 straight pts and the game was out of reach.

I'm bringing a "NO WAVE" sign to each game. Oddly enough, I believe the WAVE started on Game 3 of the playoffs and we lost that game.

No love for the Wave in section 207

Someone do us favour and read that Darryl the riot act at the next HG.

In saying that though, I really think it is our injuries and short staff that could not get us back after 1/2time today

That WAVE thing looks uglier than Clipper game. Only INSANE people would perform such thing. By allowing such disturbing act, Clipper mangmt. approved WAVE of insanity.

Dunleavy is a great coach. His loyalty to starting 5 is like an obedient wife who'd do nothing wrong to insult her husband. Start 3rd q... now every tean knows they can take over the game against Clips. WHY? Because our starting 5 play like they are going for a pleasant walk in the woods.

Dunleavy is too Dumb to realise the practical things which takes shape during the game.

Listen to his post-game comments. It makes anyone fall sick. He is still childish about playing the game RIGHT WAY. Hey who cares? Just play hard & win even it's not played right way. This is NO High School ball, Mr.Dumbleavy.

As long as Cassell, TThomas, QRoss start 3rd period... we will keep losing big time.

Pressure & aggression from oppsing team can be neutralised only by applying the same. Cassell & Thomas are not ready to face that situation.

Cuttino Mobley played 46:24 min.yesterday. This is the clear indication of Mr.Coach falling asleep during the game.

mobley was working. I would have left him out there too. They were competetive. We have to give them that. They could have won that game. q ross hustles man. I liked what i saw from him... That was some horrible officiating. I count 5 calls that should have gone the other way. I'm blaming THE WAVE and the bad calls....and of course dunlevy. But wave and bad calls first.... does any other team's fans do the wave? i've never seen it.

Clipper Darryl is really annoying. But the Rental Man takes the cake. I was sitting about 7 seats away from him. He's dancing and making stupid facial expressions throughout every timeout...even when there is no music being played. There was some poor lady sitting in front of him, and his big ASS kept hitting her head... and some stiffy old guy right behind him who had to watch that the entire game. If i were sitting there, i'd call security and complain.

It's not funny, it's distracting, and kudos to the clippers arena camera operators for NEVER putting him on the screen (him and clipper darryl). These fans are not bigger than the game. They dont deserve airtime. Ok i'm done.

We're seeing a very heady offensive player who knows how to create shots for himself in the halfcourt. Despite finishing with a 3-13 line from the field, Thornton had his best night at a pro.
