Injuries hurting Clippers' practice time

There was at least one command that Clippers coach Mike Dunleavy didn't have to bark out Monday: a reminder for the offense to maintain proper floor spacing when running plays. That's because nearly half of the Clippers players were unavailable to practice.

But the Clippers were reduced to going four-on-four, full court, as just eight of 15 players were healthy enough to practice. Besides Elton Brand and Shaun Livingston, who will be rehabilitating their respective injuries until February, guard Brevin Knight (strained left hip flexor), Tim Thomas (sore lower back), Al Thornton (sore foot) and Aaron Williams (strained right calf muscle) sat and watched, between getting treatment. Minutes later, they were joined by center Chris Kaman, who strained his left foot in a drill.

Even Ta'Nisha Cooper, the Clippers' assistant director of media services, was not a full strength at practice because of the flu.

Re: Injuries hurting Clippers' practice time
Has Kaman EVER started a season uninjured?

Re: Injuries hurting Clippers' practice time
Breaking news...qross1fan is also injured and won't be able to post more then once a year.
Seriously though, what is up with our injuries. Can we please get ourselves a better medical staff, please. Next thing we know, the people working at the box office will be MIA due to 'injuries'

Re: Injuries hurting Clippers' practice time

It's the Clipper curse, what else could it be?

Re: Injuries hurting Clippers' practice time
Even players that leave get hurt.. Darius Miles,James Singleton, Bobby Simmons. Maybe it goes with you once you have worn a clips jersey.
