I also get a warm fuzzy feeling from a win over the Grizz. Wish I had DH's in depth analysis but thx again Cat. ------------------ I am so exasperated that I could expectorate.
yes boob it is the fab5 king thanks for the stats Cat ------------------ Stuff BBS, the Rockets and you guys It's all Clippers these days, come join the bandwagon and visit http://www.ClippersCity.net
What's with Tyronne Washington? 1 rebound in two games shouldn't command any time. They should give Axel Dench more time to show what he can do. I'm beginning to pull for the Australian making the team over Tyronne. ------------------
yeah come the proper season we need some DENCH COMING OFF THE BENCH ------------------ Stuff BBS, the Rockets and you guys It's all Clippers these days, come join the bandwagon and visit http://www.ClippersCity.net
Yeah, Dench is going alright!! He's really showing that he can make the outside shot (when he's set) and he's not slow and he tries hard.. we need a 12th man!!!! ------------------
We must be a BAD team if we are talking about Dench making an NBA roster ------------------ "Don't think twice, its allright"
