(All written out, so this is going to be quick).
The Clippers are basically Wizards-east. Even without Blake Griffin, they have a ton of talent, but never seem to get things done. In one of my all-time favorite lines in NBA blogosphere history, here's ClipperBlog after the Clippers' blowout home loss to San Antonio last night.
It would be far more instructive if the Clippers could produce some recurring basketball patterns to their losses and stick with them.
Classic Kevin Arnovitz. But really, it kind of sounds like the Wizards, doesn't it? The Clippers desperately need a new coach - having Mike Dunleavy call a ton of set plays just isn't working for this bunch. They need to get out in transition and never do. Imagine if Scott Brooks coached this team instead of Mike Dunleavy? How much better would they be?
Regardless, this is a weird situation for both teams. This is a double-home back-to-back for the Clippers, as well as a getaway game for them (they're about to embark on a road trip), while the Wizards are just starting their West coast swing. This seems like a winnable game, but nothing is totally winnable with this bunch, as we all know.
I'm probably going to watch this on tape-delay tomorrow, but for all others, here's your open thread.
GO WIZARDS!

Looking forward to this one
Even though it goes off 3:30am UK time, Should be a good
chance to bounce back against a team with similar troubles,
Hoping Gil puts another big game in and would prefer Young
over DeShawn.
Props to you
for staying up that late to watch this dysfunctional collection of people. Sadly since I am at work I am stuck the NFL game until its over.
Don’t we have a terrible record when playing at the Clippers?

Hopefully you will catch the good half
I honestly dont know how we are leading, Hopefully Gil will come
good after a decent finish to the half, Haywood looks a beast tonight.
I'll be there
Not sure how many wiz fans will be at Staples tonight. I came out for the Skins-Raiders game yesterday and flew into LA just for this one. Haven’t seen a Wiz road game in awhile (since C-Webb was still on the squad, yikes). Should be fun.

I never understood that suspension
The only jokes are about the fact that no Iranian has ever played in the NBA and that it is interesting to have a talented basketball player come from a country where basketball is not popular. And the joke that Haddadi’s face and hair are reminiscent of Borat.
There is no ethnic or racial slur anywhere. I’m usually PC to the extreme, but that was over the top and unwarranted.
i just hope that
GIl has the ball in his hands at the end of the game so he can get that swagger back!

put it this way
if our guys had their act together, this would be a rout. As it is, we’re only up by 6.
I realy like Young's offensive game
He just looks like a guy you could use in any offense.
I wanna see Stevenson guard Baron Davis
It’ll be like attending a ZZ Top concert.
Gil needs to attack the pick and roll more aggressively.
Going east west quickly off that screen he could probably beat Kaman who is only barley hedging on the screen.
gil cannot guard ANYONE

The only difference in this game
Is that Jamison has made 3-4 shots nobody else in the league would take. There are only 1-2 players playing serious defense at any point in the game, and the offenses still look awful.
Oh McGuire
I thought you practiced shooting last summer?
Yeah, that was ridic
he had young open on the wing
by SidVicious25 on Dec 14, 2009 11:15 PM EST up reply actions
True
But Young was standing there on his heels with his hands hanging loosely at his sides like he wanted no part of the play. They just aren’t at all focused tonight.
He thinks he's Pierce
so instead of just catching and shooting, he feels that he has to make the Big Time All Star move.
tunnel vision + indecision
that’s what it looks like to me

Butler finally catches and shoots
and what do you know, it goes in.
Maybe I dont know enough about basketball
but if Oberto is such a smart player, why does it seem like he pick up fouls faster then anyone else? Is there a good reason that I’m just not seeing?
Current popular definition of a smart player in NBA
Anyone who doesn’t take a lot of shots or get a lot of rebounds.

butler
Just travelled, was in the lane for 3 seconds, and then threw the ball away all on the same play.
Whenever Twan catches he shoots
Every time Caron catches he fakes or puts it on the floor
Both need to find a better medium.
Arenas got caught up in the game here
Didn’t have time to second guess himself.
They look mad all of a sudden…like they want to win or something.
You said it
Jamison has been the offense, and Haywood has been all over the boards.
if it wasn't for haywood
we would be worst than the nets…………….ok not that bad
by Freedom Hurley on Dec 14, 2009 11:39 PM EST reply actions
Unbelievable that we have a 5 point halftime lead
We held the opponents to 39 points in the half. Must be playing some stifling defense. Or maybe the Clips are pretty bad.
The Wiz should save money...
….and play without any coaches. They wouldn’t be any more disorganized without a coaching staff, so why waste money. At least McGee would get a chance to play.
Flip needs a stiff dose of truth medicine.
quick question
is caron the biggest problem or the only one we can trade?

Boykins
Is anyone else really tired to see him continue to dribble the air out of the ball?
Its terrible offense and it only works when Boykins himself is hitting jump shots. He isn’t a good shooter, and he only is willing to pass after dribbling for 20 seconds so here’s to a quick recovery for Javaris (who at least plays better D and is unselfish even if he is a TO machine).
Not this game
Seems like our most consistent offensive weapon is throwing up bricks and hoping that it leads to a frontcourt layup

Hopefully Caron will come out
With his ears stinging and come alive, I predict he gets 15 plus
in the second half.
it seems like
the wiz have no strategy they just come out and play the same way every game
by Freedom Hurley on Dec 14, 2009 11:54 PM EST reply actions
That's exactly how gil should take threes
In rhythm, off the dribble. He is so much more accurate that way – not a catch and shoot player.
as good as jamison is
i cant name five teams that would start him

Wow, Butler with a high IQ play
left his man to double with 1 second on the shot clock
This is a completely different team
Playing tough D out there this half. Even executing a little better on offense.
..... and then he takes a jumper with no rebounders down court
Knew he was playing too intelligently for it to last
Flip should bottle his halftime speech
It must have been a good one.

Dang Haywood
It’s a pick and ROLL. You can’t just stand there and let your guy double the ball handler.
Flip, let Foye play point
I can’t watch another Boykins dribbiling show
Ahh!
Stevenson and McGuire in the game together…this is very bad.
Lineup
Boykins
Stevenson
McGuire
Jamison
Haywood
Just give the ball the Jamison, damn it.
Why are we running high posts for Deshawn?
This is a nightmare offensive lineup

It was weird how they turned it up after the Wiz did.
If Boykins actually plays the 4th quarter
…. hold me back, hold me back!
wow
Nick Young is in for the start of the 4th Quarter

Good I missed the 3rd quarter
And Blatche made a terrific play so maybe I will only see the good part of this game?

Actually the Wiz were great in the first half of the third
See comments above…horrible lineup and strong play by clips led to 20-5 run to close out the quarter.
Nice play Blatche
Looking at who is in now, I think Flip thought Jamison would carry that all-defensive line-up. Hopefully he won’t try that again.

Wow they are better than the Wizards now
after that horrendous start. Oh dear!

Go for it.
I think we need to let off some steam

One thing is for sure
That is we need a PG and it aint Gil, We cant even cross
halfcourt in control, Think of the damage Gil could do with
a half decent playmaker alongside him.
and they have the nerve to play that damn Wizards commercial again...
…that’s it for me; I need to sleep this off.
like i said, didnt watch game...
but good night statistically for caron. did he play as well as it looks?
20-7-5 + 5 steals
No
Look at his 5 TOs.
At least he did some decent catch and shoot tonight. He was better, but still not good.

Fair point, but
His TOs came at game killing times

he was invisible
Until the last six minutes

Well I guess if theres one piece of inspiration that can be culled from this season
Is that if the Grizzlies can win games, so can anybody
On the other hand
It’s more than sobering to realize that 95% of us would trade teams and cap situations with griz even though they employ one Zach Randolph
