The Clippers are peaking at the right time (that’s so Chris Paul) as they head towards the final stretch of the regular season. Our guy Michael Shagrin takes a look at what happened in last night’s blowout victory. Coming off the first five game winning streak since 2006, the Clippers were as hungry[...]
Busy watching Anthony Davis get his Marcus Camby on? Here’s the Lob City Ledger from ESPNLA.com to catch you up on the blowout victory over the reigning champs. We’ll have more from this game coming, but for now, the Ledger: Blake Griffin 7-11 FG | 1-5 FT | 16 REB | 1 AST | 15 PTS | +18 GRADE: A- What’[...]
I wasn’t fortunate enough to grow up watching Kevin McHale play (I guess MJ is a nice consolation prize) but from everything I’ve seen in old clips and have heard from smart people, McHale had the best post moves ever. The guy had counters for his counters, blending a whirling array of pumpfakes and impecca[...]

LaMarcus Aldridge out for Portland while the team also gives Luke Babbitt and Jonny Flynn significant/semi-significant minutes? Well, of course the Clippers respond by giving up a huge game[...]
This blowout over the Grant Hill-less (and that’s not insignificant) Suns makes it 3-in-a-row. If the Clippers manage to win on Friday against the Trail Blazers, who probably aren’t as hapless as most thought they would be post-Gerald Wallace trade, it would make for what I believe would be the first winnin[...]
I love New Orleans. I’ve been three or four times, but haven’t been back since the storm. Not that Katrina is the reason I’ve stayed away.
