    I couldnt agree more. I like their announcers. Sure they may have their flaws but nobody is perfect. Its not their job to cater to Rox fans.

    It was a good game but can't read too much into this one or the Thunder game. Budinger finally played up to his potential. Now he just needs to work on his consistency which should earn him a lot more time on the floor.

    I like how Adelman finished the game with Lowry, Brooks was dead tired from defending in the post and pushing the offense. Battier on Davis was a nice move as well.

    Couple of NASTY dunks for Ariza! Too bad his shot wasn't falling but good to see him taking it to the hole!

    The Clippers announcers are among the worst in the league. IDK if you've ever heard them when we have Yao playing. I have never heard the level of bashing and idiocracy that I have from them when Yao's on the floor. I think at one point 3 years ago they said Kaman was better than Yao.

    Actually they are the worst. The younger guy even seems to be pretty smart, but still not enough.

    It is funny. Davis stole the ball in the 3rd and made a normal one-handed dunk. The announcer was screaming for like 5 seconds. I was like 'WTF'

    What's more. It if funny, because no matter who comes into their building, they always seem to talk about how great the Clippers are and how badly the opponent sucks. It is pretty amazing.

    But still, the best part was. HAYES CAN'T GUARD KAMAN. Come one. Even Kaman asked if he thinks they will bring double team, asked 'They'd better do'

    Stats for Chris. 10 points and 5/16. But still. Hayes can't guard Kaman. Come on.

    Yeah that was pretty much my reaction as well. I mean I was sitting wondering if they were aware that Chuck Hayes was going to be guarding Kamen and not Billy Mays Hayes.

    Maybe they are not aware of Chucks defensive ability.

    ------A Clippers' fan wrote this before the game and this was what happened exactly in the game.

    Can't offer firsthand analysis since I didn't catch the game. But if the Chronicle article is any indication, the Rockets forced the Clippers to shoot jump shots and they didn't go down. Funny. When the Rockets become a jump shooting team, the results have been similar, lately.

    Gotta love Battier trying to stroll down the lane for a jam ... I think he was trying to imitate Ariza, except he realized he doesnt have his jumping ability along the way :)

    Yes and there is no way that the goggles that he's never worn before were affecting his depth perception thus making his shot off a little. :rolleyes: :rolleyes:
