    In crunch time, CP3 could do no wrong except a missed lay up. He made the big buckets and even got the stop on Crawford to take away chance we had.

    Eff that guy.

    Yeah, that junior high game we watched in the first half wasted 24 valuable minutes.

    He was even able to call timeouts while out of bounds! That's definitely a good skill to have!

    You're right and it sucked. But Clippers couldn't convert so it didn't hurt AS bad. We still had time and were content on trying an Aldridge 3 point shot/Crawford 3 very early. I don't know, good effort by the Blazers though.

    I was hoping we could have went 1-1. That's out the door now. No way we're beating OKC at home.

    Next game will be against an even tougher opponent. We better come out with focus and concentration or we'll be down 50 at half time.

    I think CP3 is a mutant.

    I'm getting pretty close to making a Felton for Udrih trade thread.

    Holy shit, this guy just makes some of the most idiotic decisions. His stats deceive!

    Does anyone really hate Blake Griffin? Doesn't he just come across as a colossal asshole? I thought LaMarcus outplayed him handily (despite having a pretty crappy game himself) but Griffin made it up at the line. It was fun seeing our guards just take the ball away from him repeatedly.

    Felton has been quite terrible for us so far, but it's still early. Hopefully, these dumb plays are because of the lack of training camp and him being on a new team.

    He's certainly no Andre Miller. Throughout all the first three quarters I was missing Andre's bucket-making ability. He was a guy last year who could just get us baskets when we needed them.

    But (apparently) the real problem today was Wesley. -20 is ugly.

    Lost in all this: Nic thoroughly outplayed Wallace tonight. But it won't mean shit for Nic in terms of minutes for future games.

    Yeah, he seems like a punk. He tried to act like he got clobbered to draw a flagrant foul when Kurt barely fouled him.

    I never drank the Felton kool-aid.

    Until we get a PG we're not going to be a real threat.

    I cant believe some of the hating that is going on. I would expect it from some of the forum blazer bashers but not from guys like yuyuza. Come on, its really early, and yes Felton is not Chris Paul, but he's pretty damn good and hes better than andre miller. This team will be fine. They will never win a game when their starting sf has 0 points and two backcourt guys have 11 TO's
