Toronto vs. LA Clippers When: Friday November 13th, 2009 @ 10:30PM Where: the Staples Center in Los Angeles, California TV/Radio: TSN2, FAN590 STARTING LINEUPS Jose Calderon - DeMar DeRozan - Hedo Turkoglu - Chris Bosh - Andrea Bargnani Baron Davis - Eric Gordon - Al Thornton - Marcus Camby - Chris Kaman
I'm not sure. Hedo, Bosh, and Wright were all a bit banged up and didn't practice. I think it'll be a game-time decision for all of them, but Triano didn't really give an indication as to which way he's leaning. EDIT: Apparently Eric Gordon is out for the Clips, which definitely works to our benefit.
just tuning in, boxscore seems to indicate that their frontcourt is raping ours. is the boxscore accurate, or is it not as bad as it seems?
watching triano coach is like watching a mentally challenged person read and i apologize to the mentally challenged ppl of the world because triano cant coach here are a few mistakes i noticed -bargnani blows by kaman so the clips isolate kaman on the low block and dominate bargnani; now the obvious move would be to allow bargnani to go back at him offensively but they totally freeze him out -amir was playing great all second quarter but triano decides to bring in bargnani who promptly jacks up an errant shot -bosh isnt passing out of the double team and triano still insists on running more plays for him -they played a lot of man to man today and thats a little counterproductive against a team with baron davis and poor shooting -instruct caledron to play off davis, the guy is an alright shooter at best but a superstar as a penetrating drive and kick point guard
and why didnt derozan get some run in the second quarter? i ask because antoine wright has been killing the ball movement of late offensively. -and amir is bringing the awesomeness once again
baron davis totally gave up on his team. if i was dunleavy- i would seriously consider benching davis and giving telfair his minutes because at least the kid competes. -caledron outplayed baron, especially in the second half -i really like wright finishing games because he really competes defensively -belinelli was really good, even defensively -i really like pick and roll with beli and bosh -caledron is probably the cockiest european player in the league and turk is second -amir is a terrific rebounder and has good chemistry with bosh
i notice that ppl are always bitching about the thread chick, today being the obvious exception, nevertheless, i thought it would be a good idea if forum regulars could select their desired girl for the upcoming game. so maybe for next game- chocolove chooses, basx after that, etc good idea? bad idea?
oh, and it looked like jose tweaked his hamstring at the end of the game, hopefully its nothing serious
Wait--a team gave up a 20+ point lead at home to be blown out and embarrassed by the end--and it wasn't us?!
dunleavy isnt getting fired cause their owner (donald sterling) is spend thrift. plus,isnt dunleavy the gm and coach in clipper land? btw, i think if gordan played tonight we would have lost but he didnt so they gassed out at the end and they are of course dysfunctional as well
