Did Billups get a warning for that flop?

Still crying over that I see
Says the Raider fan ok.

Raiders have 3 of those Lombardis...

Clippers have just as many Lombardis as they do NBA Championships

 

[tonelow]

If the League/Refs don't see it why should I?

lmfao

At least you're entertaining.

For real tho, Lakers are only 3.5 games behind the Almighty Clips.

Gloating over 3 more wins in December.

I love you mj, but I will be the first Clipper fan to say that he doesn't speak for all of us. Carson born, Orange County bred, and I've been a clipper fan since 1996. I like the Lakers and I've always rooted for them whenever they aren't playing my Clips.

Just throwing us out there, the Clipper fan, Laker fan hate needs to stop. We all not created equal. We can coexist

 

[mjshoefanatic]

Not "gloating" just not concerned with what is going on across the hall with that other la team. I only care about what my team is doing. For the record I have many homies that are diehard LAL fans. No luv lost. GL to yall this season. Like I said before in another post hope Gatsby gets healthy soon. Should be a fun season for both our teams.

Speaking of flopping teams, Gerald Wallace has been fined for flopping. That makes two Nets (Wallace and Reggie Evans) to be fined so far this season.

This is like Jets fans trying to claim that they'll ever be better than the Giants or Mets fans ever saying that they'll be better than the Yankees

Sounds good but you don't speak "for all of us" either. Most Clipper fans I know are from the LA Valley, West LA, Orange County, Long Beach, South Central, Koreatown and Downtown and they have never liked or rooted for the other la team but to each his own fam. No luv lost.

@HowardBeckNYT Chauncey Billups also got a flopping warning today (as many predicted) for play against Jazz.

WELP.

i dont mind teams that use "money ball" or "advance stats" to build a team but that **** doesnt work at all if you dont spend money. case in point in baseball the A's use it but dont spend money to keep players or bring better ones in. red sox used it but still got big money players and won with it. basketball wise OKC uses it but he knows to still spend money to keep its 2 best players.

anyone know why when i quote people it takes out the text?

Let me stop you right there. They use "moneyball" because they don't have money to spend on big name free agents. But they CONSTANTLY bring players in from their farm system or through trades for prospects. Seems to be pretty effective actually considering they don't have the money as say, their east coast counterparts.

Good the nets been lopping all over the place it's disgusting.

Chauncey is the biggest name to get one so far

I know I don't. Just putting another perspective out there since you're the face of #ClipperNation on these boards. It's all love.

Respect

valid points AG and i agree with that, i would of went deeper with it but since it was more for basketball side i didnt.

my whole point is with this money ball/advnace stats going into the other sports you cant and wont win at a high level if you dont spend money while using it

spurs and OKC may use that stuff but still spend to keep there star players and then work from there.

Seal Beach ...we were pursuing a project in the City and I had a chance to spend a full day near the beach...such a cool little fun community.

And I feel you Mike. I think it's easier in the NBA to keep a star, especially if they are "homegrown" ...at least that team can pay the player more money
