Clips Nation Dear 82-0...

Dear 82-0, esteemed poster on ClipsNation...

You mad, bro? You mad?

I don't care if I get banned and/or reprimanded for calling him out by name. He has been an insufferable pessimist all season, and has single-handedly made this blog about 25% less enjoyable.

This is the happiest day of my life. I just want to shout it from on top of a mountain...I LOVE VERONICA CORNINGSTONE AND NICK YOUNG AND REGGIE EVANS.

Thoughts? He can't be any worse than Gomes, can he?

I created a new Clippers blog, called ClipperCentral, about a month ago. It's mostly just a place for me to post my whimsical observations for my friends; there's not much in the way of legitimate analysis. But I thought you all might want to check it out nonetheless. Thanks for tolerating this shameless self-promotion!

Clips Nation Single Game Tickets Pre-Sale



Does anyone have any info on the presale for single game tickets? I've heard it starts today at 10am, but I haven't gotten any info from the Clippers. In years past, they have always emailed me with the necessary details. I'm not a season ticket holder, but I'm a member of My Clipper Nation. Am I missing something, or are they just not doing it this year? I imagine the ticketmaster server might crash today with all the people trying to buy tix to see CP3. Thanks for your help, Clipper nation.

I love Matt Barnes' attitude and hustle. He and Griffin would bring some much-needed intensity to our squad. I'm a little skeptical of him as a starter, but I'd love to be able bring him off the bench for an energy spark. I like him as a fall-back plan if LBJ, Joe Johnson, Rudy Gay, et al don't work out. I wonder how much $$$ he'll command in the open market.

Clips Nation Baron for Eddy Curry?

Bill Simmons threw out this possibility on a recent podcast, calling it his "unsubstantiated rumor of the day."  I'm wondering what Clips Nation thinks about this deal.  I can see why the Knicks would do it: Baron would probably be great in D'Antoni's free-flowing system, LBJ/Wade/Bosh would love to play with Baron, and Curry has a NEGATIVE PER.  It also makes some sense from the Clippers' perspective: they escape from the last three years of Baron's contract (Curry's deal expires next summer) and have an insane amount of cap space to toss at Carmelo/Durant in the summer of 2011. 

Personally, I'm in favor of giving Baron one more year to prove himself.  I think it's too early to call this experiment a failure and dump him for cap relief.  We saw what he is capable of when motivated (see: his masterful performance in our nationally-televised home victory over the Lakers).  I think (hope?) that Blake Griffin's presence will re-energize Baron.  He and Griffin could be a deadly pick 'n roll duo.  I still think he's in the upper-half of starting PGs in the NBA.  That being said, I'd be awfully tempted if the Knicks threw in a future first-rounder...
