    Let me just point this out before the Clippers play Detroit tomorrow -

    http://espn.go.com/nba/standings

    There's a new #3 out West ya'll!

    The game we play against the Blazers is crucial to that though. If we win, we hold down the #3 spot heading into our game against the Cliippers. Randolph's still not back though. Any reasonable fan would expect him back for the Blazers game, but he's 0-2 on showing up against Portland so far this year, and I'm starting to think there's something to that.

    Wowsers, talk about monster. As well, had to love that quasi-stink-eye he displayed in the aftermath.

    I used to not like Brandon Knight. Never really been a fan of his game or Kentucky, and so I've always rooted against him.

    Since the rookie game and this posterization though, now I just feel sorry for him. He's like an annoying, yapping wiener dog that got run over by a truck only to get backed out over in the drive way a week later.

    EDIT: Not to mention, it still bugs me that Brevin's little brother, the original Brandin Knight never made it in the league, because every time they say "Brandon Knight" on tv, I still think they're talking about Brandin Knight for some reason, even though the Pistons version has had more of a pro career already. I watched so many Brandin Knight games growing up, that it'd almost be like if the Blazers drafted a player named Brandin Roy. It'd annoy you every time they say the name.

    Someone wrote: "When a center with a running start barrels into a little guard, it's not impressive. Yawn."

    It's an L.A. team so it's treated like a giant event.

    I'd agree, but the fact that it was Brandon Knight made me take notice.

    On that tip though, how about DeAndre Jordan still making 10+ mill, and not really having any aspect of his game developed outside of his raw, natural physical abilities?

    Griffin's games coming along, slowly, but I've never seen more money and attention spent on two raw, physical players that really can't play to the level their contracts suggest. That's why you never hear anyone say they're scared of playing against the Clippers' frontcourt. Usually, it's the other way around... teams with good frontcourts look forward to playing the Clips.

    Cavaliers guard Kyrie Irving out 3-4 weeks with a left shoulder sprain.

    Ouch, guy is really proving to be injury prone.

    One more reason I'm glad we didn't draft him!

    Even over Leonard? Obviously you don't take him over Dame but if in some alternative universe he slipped to #11? I think you take Drummond.

    If lbj doesn't win MVP, it would be a serious blunder! He's as guaranteed as Lillard winning Roy.
