Hey Dynasty what do you think about the play of Dooling?
I'M SLOWLY starting to pay more attention to him. Seems every time I focus in on him, he's committing a turnover. But, here lately, I've caught him hitting 3s at critical moments. I think his slow start is due to lack of playing time and last year's injury has hampered his development, but he's catching up. I keep reading a lot about him and many fans like his play, so I've got to pay more attention.
Its frustrating for me to watch Miller play mediocre basketball at times. Especially his inability to make freethrows.
I AM JUST NOT SOLD ON MILLER, yet. Awhile back when there was this uproar about the Clippers needing him because he led the league in passing (THAT year). The first thought that came to my mind was, "If he's all that, why would Cleveland want to let him go? They certainly didn't have a cap problem." Then I read somewhere he was freezing out a couple of teammates, so I thought, maybe he's not a teamplayer and disruptive to the team. So here in LA, I'm calling for him to freeze Kandi, but I guess, maybe if what I suspect is true, he wants to avoid bringing the same attitude to the Clippers and it is HURTING us rather than helping us. He should just take charge ONE night and see how the team responds to him. I thought we brought him here to PASS THE BALL. Seems he spend more time trying to score AND getting the ball into Kandi. Come to think of it ... that is probably GENTRY's fault and that is what's making Miller look so bad.
Since you didn't see the game, then you didn't see the "alley-oh-no" he lobbed to Kandi. To be fair, that could be Kandi's fault because, "KANDI DOESN'T HUSTLE SO HE DIDN'T JUMP and complete the OOPS. 
DID you win any money while in Vegas. It's been years since I've been there.
I'M concerned about Q. He's just not the same without Darius and doesn't seem to be adapting at all. With that attitude, he'll continue getting injured. I know he's young, but he must snap out of it and move on.
The clips backcourt should consist of Jaric, Dooling, Q, and Miller after this year, pike as much as i love em theres no room.
I AGREE. But, I like Maggette (if for nothing more than his will to win), and we need to have a place for him as well. Pike is too young to retire, or I'd suggest a management position with the Clippers. But, he'll be like Kurt Rambis and move on before returning after retirementr.

Clip, I've incorporated my response within yours ... hope it's not confusing. Although, the Clipper's record is not the worse, they just haven't looked fluid to me at all this year. I am so hopeful that Kandi is benched for the next game. There certainly are enough reasons todo so, starting with the unprofessional displace following a foul call and his constant belittling of the team and coach to the meadia.
WHEW ... I really am frustrated.
