    I just noticed last night's boxscore. Quetin Ross is starting over Simmons, what's the reasoning behind that move?

    Simmons has a pretty bad bruise on his leg. Dunleavy wanted to cut back his minutes to give him some rest. of course the way it worked out, just like the game before, he needed to play more minutes for the Clippers to win. Simmons has been a game time decision the past 2 nights. In the first game, he wasnt even supposed to suit up, but he otherwise convinced Coach Dunleavy to play him.

    I wasn't sure either, but I assumed it was due to some sort of injury.
