Caron Butler will miss about a week with a strained left elbow as reported by Dan Woike of the OC Register. The injury occurred with about four minutes left in the third quarter of last night’s game against the Detroit Pistons. Butler was guarding Kyle Singler on the left low block. After Sing[...]
With 42 points on 14-of-26 shooting, it’s safe to say Carmelo Anthony had his way with the Clippers in Sunday’s matinee at Madison Square Garden. The Clippers got the win, so Anthony’s gaudy point total didn’t matter that much, but his performance continued a perturbing trend of opposing wings light[...]
They did it. With a 107-96 victory over the Utah Jazz, the Los Angeles have won 17 games in a row and went undefeated in the month of December (16-0). Only three teams have gone undefeated in a month. Lobsanity is at its peak, and there’s really nothing else to say about it. Next week, sadly, [...]

After San Antonio took what seemed like a commanding 10-point lead over the Clippers heading into the second quarter, you could feel a wave of collective doubt creeping over the game.
