    We let Kaman destroy us in the 3rd quarter. He had anything we wanted to. Really made Brad Miller look like a dinosaur.

    Couldn't keep DeAndre Jordan off the boards. Two memorable tip in dunks off of rebounds that Scola and Chuck had a hold of.

    Scored enough to win. Not enough D.

    These are the kinds of games you have to win to make the playoffs. We could have caught up another game tom some teams but we keep shooting ourselves in the foot. It has been 2 steps forward 1 step back. We are gonna need to start going 3 forward, zero back.

    Maybe some of the posters need to stop with the winning streak threads and take it easy.

    Good effort, but shouldhave won this game. Adelman shouldhave played his bench more when starters were struggling. Twill could have been unleashed....it was worth a shot since Bud was the pre Battier Bud tonight.

    1) Brad Miller Sucks
    2) Why is Lowry the "go-to" guy late in quarters? Doesn't make any sense. I realize that Bud got the last shot, but Lowry clearly wanted the shot...

    This loss really hurts. Just when it seemed like the playoffs were within reach. Guess this counts as one of our 5 games we could lose... looks like we need to win one of SA, SA, Dallas, @Miami, @New Orleans

    Just too tired, and it showed in the 3rd. Adleman called a good game, but I wish he would have gone to the bench earlier in the 2nd half.

    Bottom-line.....we win this under different circumstances.

    Nice final play by Lowry. Hold the ball 27ft from the basket, pump fake, then pass it with 1.5 seconds left. Ya, that always works. WTF I'm so pissed off. I ****ing hate how so many players do that...are they trying to act like what they think superstars act like with time running out?

    lol some of you are...wow.

    He shoots 50%, scores 24 points, gets 10 assist and 0 turnovers and he's now the reason we lost the game?

    This game would have been a blowout if Gordon hadn't of played. I cant' believe he played as well as he did coming off a wrist injury. OH well, I expected them to lose the Blazer's game, but they lost this one instead. Clipper's are going to be crazy good if their management doesn't frak it up.

    Our win in Portland will do much more than this loss. We need to keep to our game and put this one behind us.

    The missed free throws and the Lowry 3-point foul killed us. :(

    Jesus, what a frustrating game this was. A lot of flashes, but too tired from the B2B and couldn't control the boards, which isn't too surprising against a team as big up front as LA.

    It was Miller being out played by Kaman that killed the team in the 3rd.
