Ingram looks at least 2 years short of development physically. He better watch out. Kuzma might steal his spot.

Blake was impressive. I'm a believer in him since his early years, sans his off court antics. DJ is a force inside. And Beverley can do a nice job at PG. And they have sniper Gallinari now. Pretty good team.

Yes I like their flow better with Beverly and Milos together than CP3 and JJ. I guess I like two good passers more than an exceptional one and an average one.

Blake and DJ did play "happier" last night. Seems that Chris Paul was a difficult taskmaster and his frustration with the teams failure to advance past the 2nd round in the playoffs made for a very tense locker room situation.

We'll see what happens this year - perhaps both the Clippers and Rockets will be better.

Blake has had some off the court issues, too, so it will be interesting to watch which way it goes.

So this Milos, where did he come from? The only Milos I know is a film director. :D

30 years old, undrafted, played in the Euro League since 2004, and is from Serbia - that alone tells me that he can shoot. :D

Another prize find of 'Consultant' Jerry West?

He's a living Eurobasket legend Phil. I guess he figured it was time to see how he would do in the world's biggest stage.

I see, Jack. He's got a title and MVP there. But no NBA team ever drafted him for 13 years? For a while there, I thought Theodosic was an ex-Nets players. LOL

Saw this in my youtube ESPN subscription. Jay Z is really close to CP3. And says CP3 in the 2nd video, "I'm so tired to dribbling...".

I watched all three parts of ESPN's Chris Paul documentary. Quite interesting to see.

It was time for CP3 to move on - for him and for the team. Hope it works out for both he had the Clippers.

Jay Z seemed to think CP3 was crazy for passing on the $205 million max contract he was eligible for from the Clippers. I'm not sure Steve Ballmer was willing to pay that contract over 5 years since Chris would have been 37 when it was over.

We'll see what happens but Chris is already injured and they are saying he could miss up to a month of the season. He did not sign a new contract with the Rockets.

Here is a bit of irony - Hurricane Katrina hit New Orleans his first year with the Pelicans and now Harvey hit Houston after he signed with the Rockets. There were no hurricanes in LA when he played there.....just sayin :)

Yet another injury. I even forgot that CP3 didn't sign a new contract with Houston.

Injury bug has hit the Clippers - again. LAC's new guard import from Serbia, Milos Teodosic, suffered a plantar fascia injury in last nights game against the Suns. Clippers weren't specific about the extent of the injury but they have given an indefinite date for a return. Conjecture is that its a partial tear and he'll miss 6 to 8 weeks.

Sigh... Am really frustrated by a season married by so many early injuries.

Watched the Celtics beat the Knicks tonight.

Clippers vs Utah at Staples Center up next.

So far I'm happy at how Brown and Tatum are playing for the C's. 2 young wings could be our future.

Another injury to a star player tonight. Anthony Davis of the Pelicans had to leave the game vs Portland due a knee injury. MRI scheduled for tomorrow.

Injuries are ruining the supposed to be exciting season.
