    As I have been saying, Ron doesn't fit.

    Good win though.

    This game was nice.
    Offense wasnt all that great but defense was.
    3 pointers kept us in it. Rafer put up some nice ones. He was pretty awesome. Yao almost had perfect freethrows. Rebounds was a problem though. Looked like on certain occasions that they were confused about what was going on. It was okay though.

    Everyone contributed nicely. With that being said i can feel more threads about how we dont need T-Mac (who looked sexy tonight ;) ) starting or being elaborated on.


    WIN!!!!!!!

    Why did Head get more minutes then Brooks? I kno we won but when he was on the court our team went negative

    I know brooks doesnt match well againest the clips because he cant guard baron but AB can match up againest Mike Taylor and Eric Gordon. Adelman's tight leash on Brooks is baffling.

    Agreed.

    I think Coach Adelman gradually figure out a way to distribute the minutes every player should play on the floor and how to let Yao get his rest and be efficient when we need him badly instead of dragging his legs on the court. :D

    Good to see Rafer finds his range and hit that bloody 3s as well.

    Is the sight of SF3 on the bench got Rafer to have a good shooting game?

    I don't think its a fit thing. I think he thinks he needs to put up good numbers to get a good contract. I can see him pressing. I've watched him a lot over since entering the league and he's never shot this poorly. Plus it seems like he can't get off the floor. He was never a leaper, but he could get off the floor rather quick for a guy of his size. Right now, just like Yao, his lift is missing. Only thing is , Yao is 7'6 and can get away with it vs being 6'7.

    what r u guys complaining about, the mavs almost lost to them last night. At least we led all the way. There are a lot of teams not playing up to expectations, the Clips being one of them but Toronto, Mavs, Suns and Hornets come to mind. If we win some of those close ones we should have won we would be playing .700 ball. I am waiting until Jan/Feb before passing judgement on the team.

    In 2 weeks when Kaman comes back, I hope the rox make a play for Camby for scola and filler. Camby playing opposite Yao would be great. Then when Landry comes in, he slides over to the 5. Then Yao comes back and he goes out. It would be a perfect 32 min rotation with Camby,Yao, and Landry.

    Good one! :D maybe SF3 is the catalyst to Rafer and he thought he should put up a good show to prove he also can score and help the team when needed.

    Another sight i've noticed that we got 39 ft attempts and 31 dropped,the Clippers only got 16 attempts and 11 dropped. I think it means we're more aggressive on the court than they were. right? :p

    He still got plenty of shots because of the fouls. Trust me they went to him a lot
