    NBA: CHICAGO (1-6) at LA CLIPPERS (5-3)

    <h3>Bulls look to earn first road win vs. Clippers</h3>

    <div class="pre">Chicago (1-6) at LA Clippers (5-3) 10:30 pm EST</div>

    LOS ANGELES (Ticker) -- The Chicago Bulls continue a six-gameroad trip Saturday when they face the Los Angeles Clippers.

    On Thursday, Ben Gordon scored 24 points and Luol Deng added 23but it wasn't enough as Chicago suffered a 112-102 loss to thePhoenix Suns. It was Gordon's first 20-point output thisseason.


    Chicago is 0-3 away from home.


    The Clippers have lost three of their last four games, includingFriday's 122-105 setback to the Golden State Warriors despiteanother stellar performance by Chris Kaman, who collected 20points and 12 rebounds.


    The 7-foot Kaman is perhaps playing the best basketball of hiscareer, averaging 18.1 points, 14.3 assists and 2.1 blocks inseven games. Kaman's improved play could be due to the absenceof injured star forward Elton Brand.

    Mobley scored 33 against us last time we faced the Clippers. Hinrich should have an easier time of it trying to guard a traditional PG. That's my guess.</p>

    Why not Thabo tho? My guess is Skiles wants more offense, and he's willing to shake things up to get a win.</p>

    Gardner starting? I hope thats just an error. I like Gardner as the backup shooting guard over Thabo, but starting Gardner over Gordon might be the dumbest thing Skiles has done yet.</p>

    When we start sucking, I'll probably go to bed. I'm tired of watching a crappy coach screw us over again and again.</p>

    Apparently its Gardner in for Deng. Deng has an "injury".</p>

    Skiles on TV said he was going to play Deng on Mobley. They also said Magette's out - that could have changed up who Skiles wants to start.</p>

    Clippers scored when they signed Ruben Patterson. He's filling in for Magette, and I don't see it as that big a drop off.</p>

    Pretty amusing how small Wallace looks standing next to Kaman.</p>

    The picture on WGN has a reddish tint for me. Hard to say.</p>

    Wallace went down and stayed down. Didn't see him in the play at the other end. Then they call a tech on Dunleavy.</p>
