    Knew Clippers weren't beating Memphis, just like the Bulls aren't beating the Nets.

    Joey is the worst. Why does every game have to be about him?

    The NBA is the only sport where you know the refs by name. Dwell on that for a sec.

    Do you agree with my call there though? Bledsoe is really good but he gets no time for some reason. He was huge against Memphis last year and in game 1 this year, and since then, nothing. Meanwhile Billups is immobile and can't even shoot anymore.

    Congrats to the Grizz. Hopefully we get a good series next round. Godamn there are going to be a lot of fouls called between KD and the grit n foul squad here.

    Clippy... you can be glad about one thing, and its that Del Negro sealed his own fate tonight, and the Clippers will be better off for it next season.

    does it matter? Grizz front court and emergence of Gasol junior and 3pt shooting of Prince will pose problems to anyone including OKC, Spurs and Heat

    Yeah, I'll believe it when Sterling ponies up for a real coach.

    Of course it matters. I want the coach to put in the best lineups possible, and despite all of the evidence that the starting lineup is way too slow for the Grizz and the younger, speedier backups do well, Vinny refused to adjust. I'm not saying the Clippers would have won, but why put themselves in such a hole with this deficient lineup? The Clippers played their best basketball when Billups was injured and Willie Green was in his place, but they went away from that to accommodate an aging player and maybe justify the signing. And when Billuos got in foul trouble early, Vinny finally was forced to go back to his oldlineup and, lo and behold, it worked! But he inexplicably changed in in the 4th, and Billups killed all the momentum with two huge turnovers.
