Hey, kids, I'm sorry that I'm a day late with
this editorial. I had to take care of some business,
but nothing bad at all. Anyways, last night's ugly
Clipper win versus the Heat in Miami's American Airlines
Arena was led marred by bad shooting by both teams, but
the Clippers came out on top, with great play in the
2nd half. Quentin Richardson led the Clips with 25,
and Elton Brand's replacement at power forward,
Harold Jamison had 14 points and 10 rebounds. It was
Jamison's 2nd start of the season.<br><br>Jamison played
for the Heat last season, participating in 12
contests. By what I hear, Harold is one of the hardest
workers in practice, so I guess it showed. By last
night's performance, he definitely earned more playing
time. This victory over the Heat, who themselves are in
the chase of the final playoff spots in the East,
kinda makes up for Monday's truly heartbreaking loss
against Portland at Staples. The TrailBlazers have been
kind of hot too, beating Seattle last night at Key
Arena. Of course, the Clippers are 1.5 games behind
Seattle for the final spot. <br><br>The Clips can carry
this momentum up the road to Central Florida and face
an average-at-best Orlando Magic team with Tracy
McGrady. They play tonight at 4:30pm PST, and it's no word
yet whetever Brand plays tonight or not. Corey
Maggette suffered a concussion in last night's game. He
could play tonight against Orlando,
however.<br><br>Lamar Odom went back to Los Angeles to rehibiliate his
right ankle and wrist, and is expected to gone two
weeks, according to the Los Angeles Times. As I'm
writing this, the trade deadling is about a
hour-and-a-half (6pm EST/3pm PST), and fortunately or
unfortunately, depending the way you look at it, the Clips more
than likey won't make any trades. I believe they
shouldn't make any trades right now, anyways, especially
with two of the teams best players injured right now
(Odom and Brand).<br><br>Feel free to make a comment
about or any other of my editorials, and I see ya next
week! Peace!
