Kaman destroyed us the other night. Doesn't look any more promising with our Twin Tweener tandem of Pendergraph/Howard. (Fuck. How did we got from Aldridge/Przybilla/Oden to this?)

Our best shot at winning this one is if the Clippers inexplicably forget to go to Kaman for stretches at a time again. And of course Roy has to be his usual awesome.
 
I sat behind Chris Kaman's cousin last game at the RG. He's really stepped up this year....gotta watch out for Ben Gordon! Luckily for us, Blake Griffin is still injured.
 
Kaman had a good game, but I wouldn't really put it down as "killing us". He had 25 and 9. Howard and Pendergraph had 18 and 23.

You mean Eric Gordon? Ben is on the Pistons....:devilwink:
 
Marcus Thorton's dribble penetration is something to watch out for as well. Dude can beast when he wants to.

Can't let G-Diddy, Glen Davis beat us off the dribble either! (if healthy)

That's the thing--he only scored 25. He was shooting at 63%, and he was doing it in a way that was completely unstoppable. It's one thing to score 25 on putbacks and the odd hook. He was dominating in the set offense, and we had absolutely no answer for him. His teammates just started looking for their own numbers and forgot to go to him.

Had they used him properly, he could've had another 10 or so points, and his teammates would've had far more wide open looks as we'd have no choice but to double and triple team.

So you're right. He wasn't killing us. He was killing us when his teammates allowed him to. Hopefully they don't allow him to much tonight.

But fortunately for us, they have Baron Davis, Al Thornton and Eric Gordon on the team. It is only a matter of time before they gotta get theirs. With some of them, it's not even a matter of time before they get their shots. :devilwink:

lol. Yep. It's almost like watching Yao play next to Steve Francis and Catino Mobley.
 
I too am convinced that Kaman will kill us tonight. If he doesn't get the ball early and often, Dunleavy should be fired at halftime (either for terrible game-planning, or for inability to control his team).
 
Frankly I think it boils down to Boom Dizzle having even an "average" game. Kaman will get his, but if Baron goes off forget about it.
 
I am REALLY excited to see Mills play. I hope he gets a chance to hit the floor.
 
It was cool seeing Nic warming up out there. He looked good!
 
Go Blazers!!! I don't see how we can win this game, unless we get lucky.

And hopefully after he hits the floor, he gets up! We don't need another guy on the IR!:devilwink:
 
Wow, we're playing well as a team. Great passing.
