Official Los Angeles Clippers 10-11 Season Thread - The Griffin Era Begins (Again)

[lawdog1]

Definitely feeling good going into this season with Griffin back and a new coaching staff.  Things kick off tonight with the first preseason game tonight against Portland.  Someone on another Clippers forum I go to says that this website -- http://atdhe.net/ -- will be streaming the game.  I'm not making any promises that it will work, but I thought I would share since the game is not otherwise on TV. 

Let's do this.

It will be weird to see Griffin on the court.

And I hope that link works, but please no close-ups on the dude's mom.

I wouldn't be surprised if that link is just an audio stream.

Excited for the BG era to begin!

Yes he is.

Definitely excited about this season. 

I like what I'm hearing so far about Bledsoe, and how he has improved since Summer League.  

Hopefully we can stay healthy for a change.

*laker fan here*


But I gotta admit I think this team is on the cusp of becoming pretty good, IMO all the pieces are there, they just need to stay healthy..................will def. be keeping an eye out

 

[23bryan]

Def excited for the season...

 

[marath0n]

We in here.

Lakers fans always welcome.

Let's see if we can get some more of this out of the young fella.

 

[lawdog1]

^^^ None of that last night, but Griffin's numbers were solid (except for the TOs). I'll take 9 and 7 in 22 minutes considering its his first real game action in about a year. Hopefully, Gordon and Baron will play in the next preseason game, so we can start getting a sense of what this team really looks like.

Not if you want him to play all season.  Dangerous territory.

 

[marath0n]

^^True

 

[marath0n]

Clippers: 120
Kings: 88

Blake Griffin, PF177-70-04-851311103+1318
(yes 5 offensive rebounds, and 7-7 from the field)

Al-Farouq Aminu, SF266-132-33-46820014+1617
(almost a double double for AFA)

Randy Foye had 8 assists.

 

[kvsm23vs24]

Let's go Clippers!

Count me in.

 

[lawdog1]

Nice game last night. Griffin was definitely back in beast mode and a surprisingly (at least for me) good showing by AFA. If Aminu can do that kind of thing on even a semi-regular basis, it will greatly exceed my current expectations for him.

 

[mjshoefanatic]

Yes apparently AFA has 3-pt range 

Also, Baron and E-Bled should be available for tonight's victory @ GSW 

 

[lawdog1]

^^^ Whether he has the range or not, I think I'd prefer that he try to get his points on offensive rebounds and on the break -- at least to start out. But if he starts hitting 3s consistently, I might change my mind.

 

[mjshoefanatic]

I hope we use him the same we did DMiles back in the daze.

 

[marath0n]

Warriors tonight. Link on atdhe.net.
Let's see a repeat of last night.

 

[eagle 0n]

Sorry for the false alarm. Looks like audio is only option we have.
