TOR lists Kleiza (knee), Bargnani (elbow) & Valanciunas (finger) as OUT Friday. No Rudy Gay or Haddadi means they'll have 10 guys in uniform

If we don't win this next one, I will be legitimately embarrassed.

As long as BG 32 & the usual suspects show up we should be fine.

^^^Just one of those games. We couldn't do anything right and they took full advantage. Ish happens, I guess.

This. Nothing to do with this one but forget it. Hello Boston.

Adding to our seemingly growing list of issues, I just read J Cross broke his nose against Toronto last night. Looks like he's going to try and keep playing with a mask.

VDN... WATER YEW DEWING???!!?!?!?!??!!?!?


on a sidenote, this was tweeted prior to the game:
Quote:
RT @SeanDeveney: Sources tell Sporting News that the #Clippers have contacted the #Celtics about Kevin Garnett. Offer would include Caron Butler and Eric Bledsoe.

Thoughts?

I think it's a panic move if it's done. Yes, Clips have been slipping but CP3 hasn't been playing. Hopefully when he comes back, the ship rights its course. I'd really hate to see EB go and ESPECIALLY for an aging vet. If you plan to deal him, at least get back something we can utilize for more than 2 years.

^^^Man, it's a really tough call. Bledsoe's probably going to have to get dealt eventually since he's not going to be content to be a back up forever. Question is, does getting KG make us a legit threat to win it all this year? If so, then I'd be ok with it. I'm just not sure.

I think we should ride this roster out Garnett is not going to put us over the top. We still got Bledsoe for this year and the next.

I like KG since way back but not sure if I want Crawford being our reserve pg for the rest of the season. grin.gif

I like kg. but to give up Bledsoe who is still developing and Butler for an older slower vet? Nah son.
post #524 of 1057
To try to get Garnett to try to win a title is a risk I rather not take. Bledsoe is here for two years. Lets ride it out. Garnett is two years max.
post #525 of 1057
Their half court offense sucks and it's gonna catch up to them in the playoffs. I think KG could help them with that.
Would they play DeAndre, Blake, and KG at the same time on the court?

With the way we've been playing lately, I wouldn't be at all surprised if we lose the game tonight against the Wiz. I can almost guarantee Beal is going to go for a career high and hit like 8 threes. Still, since its my birthday, I'm hoping for a W. Would be nice.
post #527 of 1057

Give up Bledose and CB for KG. KG and CP3 can get to the WCF and have the heart to win.

 

Easy trade, do it in a heartbeat.

I don't see us winning anytime soon. So much for home court advantage in the playoffs mean.gif

The only good thing is maybe this gets VDN fired.

Repeat of last season. 4 or 5 seed and peace out in the 2nd Rd. eyes.gif

I'm hoping all this losing gets Vinny canned.

That's the way it's looking. SMH. It's not even that we lost the game tonight, it's how we lost. That stretch where we gave up two offensive rebounds then a 3 was just inexcusable.

Thanks for that, Clippers. Added to what has already been a disappointing birthday for me.
post #533 of 1057
No one's playing like they give a damn. I was very pro-keeping Bledsoe but I think his recent play has proven he doesn't have what it takes to lead a contending team. The half court offense is abysmal but I still don't want KG on this team.

Embarrassing, not that we are losing but how we are losing. No structure whatsoever, which leads to poor spacing and TOs, no identity, get WORSE shots out of timeouts, and don't respond well after losses.

What's also embarrassing is fact that someone as incompetent as VDN is can call himself a professional coach. That decision yesterday not to foul down 2 with 26 secs left and BOS having a foul to give, was about as amateur as you can get. They didn't even attempt to trap the ball handler to try to create a TO, so clueless all I could do was laugh.

Any, If we play GS in the first round, more than likely we lose, so with this recent collapse I'm just hoping we can avoid them in the first round. But with the way things are going now, that means we'll end up against OKC or SAS sick.gif

This team is playing with no heart. They are not the same. I know Paul is out but we should be winning against the wizards. Team looks bad. I was thinking championship now I am hoping we get to the second round.
post #536 of 1057
Things should get better.clipps do not need KG.CP3 can't get better fast enough.lets go CLIPPERS.

How long is Cliff supposed to be out for?

That would be nice--and is much needed.

No Griffin, CP, Chauncey or Crawford against the Magic tonight. We're going to need Willie Green to go for 30 and Grant Hill to play like it was 1996 if we want to win, I think.
