    Why do you think the Lakers-turned-Clippers fans are trolling us here instead of wasting time on their own forums?

    A place filled with hundreds of trolls that don't know basketball? No the Clippers don't have that. The biggest Clippers forum is called Clippers Topbuzz.. but it's not as big as BBS, Lakersground, Spurstalk or anything close to that.

    It is a good test for Rockets

    The key is to limit cp3.

    Go rockets! beat LAC.

    Clippers is beatable....Rockets did it last season with Harden out of the lineup. No doubt CP3 is on a different level but Lin stayed with him pretty we'll last season...Lin will be more than fine guarding him.

    Why is everyone so worried about Cp3 going off against us? How many times last year did he score over 40? He never did that against Lin/Bev last year.

    I love Curry as a Offensive player, but he is a revolving door on defense. I guarantee Cp3 will not go over 20 against us.

    Because Brooks, the basket usher, will be guarding him when Lin is resting.

    I'd feel a lot better about the CP3 matchup if our pg rotation was Lin and Bev instead of Lin and Brooks. AB was getting torched by the Jazz yesterday. If we can limit the other Clippers players though I think we'll be fine.

    Paul currently has a 38 PER. What a ridiculous post.

    This will be a very entertaining game, two of the best offensive teams in the leauge. The Rockets have yet to really mesh offensively with the twin towers. Turnovers will be hurt us, we must limited them. I'm confident Asik & Howard will be able to change a lot of Cp3's shots inside.

    Cp3>>>>>Lin
    Reddick<Harden
    Dudley<Parsons
    Griffin<Howard
    Jordan<Asik

    I think Harden and Howard show out in LA and get a big road win. I expect a lot of small ball with Casspi returning. It should be a high scoring game. This is the kind of game you really need Bev.

    Rockets: 111
    Clippers: 104

    i'm sure McHale won't put Brooks on CP3, yeah that's mean Lin will need to be on the court when CP3 is unless he's in foul trouble. Beverley is a huge miss for this game.

    Even still, Cp3 is not even a scoring PG. He didn't go over 40 lat year, maybe a couple 30+ pt games. And you think he will drop 40 on us, one of the best Def in the L?

    We taking this shiet, 104-89. Twin Towers dominate Lob City, Harden goes ham and drops 40+

    I don't think the Rockets will win but hoping for the best. I really miss Beverley's presence for this game since Brooks ain't gonna guard anybody.
    Honestly I'm fine with a split on the road trip against LA and Portland.
