Bledsoe :facepalm
Can we please sign Casper Ware for ****s sake, we need a real point.
This proves clipper are not that deep. Warriors had 4 players Hurt and overcame the other trqm
Skeleton Clippers. lol.
[QUOTE=TylerOO]Wall shitting on Bledsoe when it matters.[/QUOTE]
He hit a wide open jumper over Crawford the last two times he scored and was a complete *****, refusing to guard Bledsoe all game long... he didn't do shit. Bottom line is the Clippers again give away a game with idiotic turnovers, failed boxouts and letting teams have 3-4 seconds to set up and hit an open 3.

Bledsoe had a couple late turnovers but he's been our best player this game dude, get off his nuts. The guy had 17 points, 9 assists, 2 blocks on 50 percent shooting and played great D.
This team really needs CP3 to control the pace. Bledsoe and Crawford constantly play out of control, and really put the rest of the team in bad positions.
Keep posting them L's though Clipshow. 2.5 games back after tonight.
The Clippers have went from AVERAGING 103 ppg... to having trouble scoring 80 a night now without CP3. :oldlol:

or billups would work. having neither fcks them
Well the team should be rested and geared to go playoff time. It's bad that they have to lose some of these games against very inferior competition, but in the long run it's better.
Trying to figure out why I keep watching this same train wreck every single game. May just take a week or two off Clippers games until CP3 returns which would be the first time I've done that in like 8-10 years.

4 turnovers. Got destroyed late. Can't run an offense. Dude is nothing more than an energetic defender off the bench. Mike Taylor was just as athletic and energetic but much better on offense.
[QUOTE=Al Thornton]or billups would work. having neither fcks them[/QUOTE]
Or any competent point guard. I don't get why Sacks doesn't use the 10-day contract or apply for an injury hardship exception for Tristan Thompson.
Clippers just going through a rough stretch, that's all. When they went on that incredible streak in December, I knew there would be an equalizer sooner or later. They'll still finish top 4, but you do have to wonder about Chris Paul: can he stay healthy?
Historically, no. But, time will undoubtedly tell. One thing is for sure; Bledsoe isn't half as scary when he's slated to play facilitator instead of attacker. Clippers need to find a way to solidify a temporary replacement for CP3 so that Bledsoe can go back to being effective spark off the bench.

Not sure what your obsession with Taylor is... the dude was a bonafide scrub. He had a few nasty athletic plays in his Clippers career, played scrappy D and that was the end. Bledsoe is 10 times the player. Can't get mad at a player who's not even supposed to be a starter yet leads a huge comeback, has a near double double.. and plays great D on the other teams star player.
I don't mind taking L's without our BEST players - but when they're winnable games against lottery teams ... ? Vinny is getting exposed with each passing day CP3 sits on the sidelines.

He got exposed the minute he was asked what his offensive scheme was and with a straight face said "Chris Paul". I've been calling for his head for 2 full years now if you remember. BTW we aren't just losing to lottery teams.. we get our asses kicked lately. I mean we lose by 8 tonight and were down double digits multiple times.
so golden state might actually win the division.
damnit clippers!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!:mad: :mad: :mad: :mad: :mad: :mad:

you're more intelligent than this
BTW Wizards played hard and earned it. They played with class, nothing for me to be pissed about. So for the few Wizards fans here, sorry if it sounds like I'm trying to discredit. Just tired of my team putting out the same, predictably shitty effort.

5-5 w/o CP3. Not that bad.
Tonight w/o both CP3 and Blake was basically lottery team vs lottery team.

Bledsoe is just stronger and better on D as a result. Otherwise, Taylor is better on offense.
For example, 28 seconds left, down 8, quick possession to shoot a three instead it ends up in a turnover because Bledsoe has a smaller basketball IQ than Darius Miles.
Just accept the fact that Bledsoe is nothing more than a high energy backup who has no place starting. At this point, Clippers would be better off starting a backcourt of Hill/Green and letting Bleds only play 20 a game, like he should be.

i don't see how you can watch this game or last game and call eric bledsoe just a high energy defender off the bench. he needs work but has undeniable talent.

5-6. The problem isn't the overall record. It was the fact that with Bledsoe starting we started off 3-0 with a win margin of 16 ppg. Then now out of the blue we are getting pwned by lotto teams.

I have pretty much never disagreed with you but your analysis is flat out WRONG on Bledsoe. Nothing more of a high energy defender? Yet dude has 23 points, 10 assists, 7 rebounds, 2 steals and 2 blocks last night... then 17 points, 9 assists and 2 blocks tonight?

No, I know. I'm just saying ... tonight was one you HAD to have. Even without Griff.
Gotta get a W in Orlando

Orlando by 12. I mean with CP3+Griffin they freaking beat us at Staples.
mike taylor never played any meaningful nba minutes which is important to remember and he could do nothing other than score. he was fun to watch but there are probably good reasons he isn't in the nba. he wasn't just cut by one team, he had a chance on another team.
If lac is the deepest team why can't they win through adversity? Spurs can. I said from day one without cp3 this te

This is their 3rd straight loss, and since the Warriors game in late January (the last time Paul has played), we've gone 2-6.
Offense has looked like shit, cant take care of the ball, and scrubs get career nights of of us. It's been pretty bad.

[QUOTE=Clippersfan86]Spurs having something we don't and so does your team. A good coach. Mark Jackson and Pop are always going to get effort, hustle and consistency from their team one way or another. Besides you had Curry out what 4 games? CP3 has been out 12. Not to mention the loss of CP3 is much greater than Bogut or Curry for you guys or Manu for the Spurs. Clippers have pretty much had 2-3 top players out all year long.[/QUOTE]
I am assuming you are counting Chauncey Billups and Grant Hill as your top players :roll:

I doubt this happens. Die hard fans say shit like this all the time, but we keep coming back for more.
I know Clippers have been shorthanded lately but Cfag86 must be pretty mad. :lol
Clippers lost 3 straight and 7 out of last 9.

That's exactly my point. If the team is so deep, they should be able to weather the storm without just one guy. And you didn't mention Duncan for the spurs.

:oldlol: :oldlol: I just looked up the games played by the Clipps. Griffin has missed one game, Craw Buttler, Barnes 2, D'andre, Bleds, Odom 0.
He must mean those 2 :oldlol:
cf, you are honestly delusional if you think chauncey billups matters. he's like 80-years-old or something and he tore his achilles.

on top of that he shot 36.4% from the field BEFORE the injury, what is he going to shoot now? 25%?
Billups, come on now. He's not the type of guy who is going to contribute as much as you want him to.
For the "deepest" team they should be able to take care of the Wiz.
Gimme the Bulls bench over the Clips still any day all day.

yeah it's just nutty. it'd be like me saying the knicks have been missing their TOP player rasheed wallace all year. obviously the only significant injuries right now are chris paul and blake griffin.
