![]() ![]() Vincent, an acting instructor and theatre manager, in an artists' housing project in New York City's Greenwich Village. He was raised by his astrologer/psychologist mother, Delora Sherleen (Sinclair), and adoptive father, Irving H. Well put, Iron Giant.Vin Diesel was born Mark Sinclair in Alameda County, California, along with his fraternal twin brother, Paul Vincent. And finally, to quote the Iron Giant, "I am not a gun." Hm. With losses by Denver and Memphis, this was truly a must-win. Both teams played some pretty good (but ugly) basketball, and while Eric Gordon played as great as we remember he can, eventually the Clippers' talent was just too much. Well, by the fourth quarter, the Clippers rediscovered their fire, most likely when someone told them that it's just a cartoon and that the Giant (SPOIILER ALERT) totally lives at the end.Īnyway, it wasn't a statement win for the Clippers or a statement loss for the Hornets. no following," and fighting that lump in your throat. You'd just be thinking of Vin Diesel saying, "You stay. Seriously, watch it and tell me you could just go out and play ball immediately afterward. ![]() Still, they seemed to forget this after halftime, and my sources have told me that it may have to do with Lil Chris asking everyone to watch "The Iron Giant" at halftime. The energy just reminded me of when the Clippers were actually having fun playing basketball. DJ was rebounding like a fiend, and Crawford and Barnes found their three-point-strokes again. So he kept Vasquez on the bench in foul trouble, and did pretty much everything you could ask of a Point God. And Chris Paul was animated and annoyed with Grievous Vasquez all game, telling Kristina Pink at the end that Vasquez was talking too much. Caron Butler in particular had one sequence where he swatted Eric Gordon, came back the other way and faked a shot, juked Brian Roberts, and got an and-one. But it was just a general energy that seemed better than we've seen from them lately. They shot 29 threes for the game, but unlike last night against Dallas, they actually made them, shooting 45% overall. The Clippers were hot as they've ever been from outside. No, the O-word I was referring to was " offense," which is, in fact, a basketball term. or something? You were doing this last time too. This is a blog about basketball, not about birds. ![]() Why would I talk about that? That'd just be stupid and really off topic. You might assume I'm talking about " ornithology" but you'd be wrong. Let's just forget about that D-word, and let's focus on the O-word. We are Lob City, and we care first and foremost about entertaining the fans. And Sideshow Bob, go ahead and have as many putbacks and wide-open dunks as you want. Take as many wide open jumpers as you need to. Defense is boring offense is way more fun. But that's probably because the Clippers know that defense isn't what the fans want to see. The Clippers decided to take the night off on defense, allowing the Hornets to shoot 49%, led by Eric Gordon (24 points on 18 shots) and Anthony Davis (19 points on 13 shots). It takes talent to win games, and the Clippers currently have much more of it. The future Pelicans are a team with a bright future, not unlike the pre-Point-God-Clippers, but a bright future can't win you games. ![]()
