Not a huge believer in pre season records but it seems the Clippers are 5-2 and winning by some decent numbers. In the pre season. I go with past history on this one. Even with talent the Clippers never "jel". I grew up in the OC and tried to be a Clipper fan on occassion. Talk about an identidy crisis.
The "World B. Free" years in the early 80's were cool. They still lost but World would hoist up 50 shots a game!! But players like Benoit Benjamin, Darnall Velentine, and ...Micheal Cage...the 6' 9" Little Richard! Those players killed my buzz. Although Cage became a Sonic and had a few good years here. I was more of trying to be a Clipper fan when they were in SD. Had Walton and they still sucked.
But have Checked the Clips roster and it is interesting. Cassell is solid. He bagged Madonna supposedly back in the day...the alien rawks! Cuttino Mobley, scored a bunch last night in a pre against the Warriors which the Clips won handily.
Last but not least. A Clipper movie moment. And there are not many. Correct me if I'm wrong, and it will only be cuz I don't remember the actor and its been so long. Does not Willem Dafoe in the 1985 movie "To Live & Die In LA" (awesome Wang Chung song by the way, I mean it, it opens the movie) say to another character something about Quentin Daly (ouch) scoring 19 for the Clips that night and he'd take that Daly kid over Jordan anyday? I saw it. Take it back Willem, or whoever you are!
