Sob City: Clipper Darrell Breaks Down During TV Interview
We're still not sure what side to take in the Clipper Darrell vs. the Clippers dispute. It's easy to blame the Clippers, since Donald Sterling is such a dick and the timing of all this just so happened to coincide with the Clippers finally tasting success. But maybe Clipper Darrell was being a bit o...
Baron Davis Finally Discusses Being Taunted By Donald Sterling: "I Didn't Even Look Forward To Coming To The Games"
When the news broke more than a year ago that Clippers owner Donald Sterling used to heckle Baron Davis from his courtside seat when Davis was still playing for him, Davis declined to comment.

On The Other Hand, Maybe Clipper Darrell Was Being Kind Of A Jerk

"You Don't Want Clipper Darrell No More": The Sad, Strange Story Of A Superfan
So this is what happens to the Los Angeles Clippers when they discover success.

Night after night, year after year, Clipper Darrell would be ...
Lob City Anthem: All 91 Blake Griffin Dunks From The First Half Of The NBA Season In One Video

Blake Griffin Just Dunked On The Entire Perkins Family Tree

Oh, Dwight Howard Decided He's Now Open To Playing For The Clippers Too
I bet, when you heard that Dwight Howard asked for a trade from Orlando to the Lakers, Mavericks, or Nets, you thought he was a front-runner. (OK, the Nets aren't so "front," but they do offer nearly unlimited access to Jay-Z and Howard could live in Manhattan.) You thought Dwight Howard only wanted...

David Stern Did The Right Thing With Chris Paul
That's a painful headline to write, and especially inconceivable after the histrionics that followed the NBA's veto of a deal that would have sent Chris Paul to the Lakers last week.

Chris Paul Headed To The Clippers, For Real This Time
Marc Stein is first to the post with news that the Clippers caved and will include Eric Gordon in a deal for Chris Paul, as long as Neil Olshey says "no takesies backsies" before David Stern can veto.
