In tonight's game asgainst NJ, I believe it's fair to say, the Clippers are BACK!!! Especially, Q. He was so happy, I saw his aggressiveness; his 3 shot is still off a bit, but the fire and attitude from last year has returned ... even the head banging gesture. (I was reallllly happy to see that!)
Also ... Parks was good. He showed Kandi how to rebound and hustle. Bringing him and Q in inspired the team. I hope to see more of him.
MILLER --- I NOW BELIEVE.
What an awesome game he had. Can you believe 16 (?) assist with 37 (?) points?
And, FINALLY, Kandi hustled and played some defense and the guys didn't go to him nearly as much and when they did, he gave up the ball when he didn't have the shot. (I still want him gone.)
I observed some team comraderie on the bench tonight; first time in a long time.
I'm really liking Dooling's game ...
I believe, this was the Clippers' springboard. I'm not saying they're all the way back. But, their confidence is there now. I believe they know what will work for them.
Gentry ... I reserve comment.
Since I also like NJ, I must say ... Kenyon's mask hampered him tonight, but the Nets also look good to me. NOTE: Deke seems to have lost something. Too bad, because I really like him.
