So San Antonio played pretty poorly, yet the Clippers couldn't help but to throw the game away in the last quarter by letting them go on a 14-3 run in the closing minutes, losing the lead with under two to go.  Factor in Chris Paul pulling a Chris Webber with one second to go and the Clippers down 2 by calling a timeout when the Clippers had none left and you have a well-deserved loss by Los Angeles.

What's going on with the Clippers?

I have no idea.  Watching them, though, something's clearly up; they don't even remotely resemble last year's Clippers.  The offense is a mess, they're always having defensive breakdowns, and it honestly looks like those guys aren't even enjoying playing basketball.

It's because Rondo's a maverick and keeps pounding the ball.

Drummond  played so badly (0-5, 2 points in 36min, 6PF, 3TO) that Fab Melo could have outplayed him  :P (well maybe not), I was sure something was wrong, such a highly rated upcoming player wouldn't play like that, but it seems someone else was playing in his place :P



Goal for next season: Top 2 seed.
Say goodbye to: Turner, Zeller, Sully.

As opposed to last year, when Doc Rivers obviously wasn't happening to them...

Silly, that doesn't fit the "Boo Doc Rivers!" angle.

Raptors playing zero defense against the Magic.

Those army camouflage uniforms Toronto are wearing are hideous.

Since Doc has control of management, it could still be Doc's fault.

I'm hearing Mike Woodson is the offensive coordinator? Is that Doc's doing?

Doc doesn't seem to be a great GM, so far at least.
At least a goldfish with a Lincoln Log on its back goin' across your floor to your sock drawer has a miraculous connotation to it.

Kings defense looking a lot better this year.

Gay and McLemore give them a lot of quickness and athleticism on the wing. No longer at physical / athletic deficit on the wings. Cousins doing good job providing team defense. No more Isiah Thomas at PG is a big boost for their defense too.

Sustainable = their defensive improvement.

Yup. He hired him together with the old Celtics crew;
