And last night we learned that no matter what kind of talent you put in a Clippers uniform, they're still the Clippers...

No, yesterday we learned something that I knew already... The Spurs are going to still be a top team in the league.

The Clippers were playing in their second game of the season, and they've hardly been able to play together. I don't think it's that awful to lose on the road to the Spurs.

It does kind of catch your attention though that through 2 games (only two games) Jordan is basically averaging what he averaged last year in 6 more minutes per game. Last year he averaged 7.1 points a game and 7.2 rebounds and this year he's averaging 7.0 points a game and only 6.5 rebounds.

It's two fucking games. I can go make the statement that he's the best defensive player of all time because he's getting 5.5 blocks a game too, right? You and DJT are two fucking idiots.

Then don't say the rest because the two statements contradict each other. The spurs are still a good team and the clippers still need more time.

They don't contradict each other, people just take things way to serious and literal on this site. I said two games and his numbers from those games and people probably jumped to conclusions thinking I was saying that is what he will average for the season. Again, two games, two games isn't even enough to make a judgement off of. But you can still talk about it.

Maybe he'll play the 3rd game and come out with a 20-20 performance.

Bad attempt at a cover-up?

Andy Vasquez
Dwight blew up Deron’s spot. When D-Will was asked earlier if he had dinner with D-12, he responded: “I don’t even know …I really don’t.”

Who cares if they had dinner. Chris Paul used to let his friends stay at his house when we played them the next day.

I honestly think the Brook injury makes Dwight to NJ more likely than if he wasn't hurt. Brook getting hurt means the Nets have no shot at a playoff spot, making their pick a lot better than it would be if he was healthy. And he'll still be back in time to be healthy by the trade deadline.

Anyone saw (or watched the game) the Philly/Phoenix box score?

Nash played 17 minutes, Gortat played 17 minutes, Frye played 13 minutes, Dudley played 24 minutes.

A few guys had 4 fouls, but still. Kind of weird.

Speaking of Phoenix they just signed Mike Redd, I hope it works out for him.

He played 10 games last year and 33 the year before.

I completely forgot that he was a low-mid 20 PPG scorer in his prime.
