This was not a mistake.
This is all about the hypnotic affect of Poetland
PV Mike - January 10, 2012
btw, I think this need background ad with CP3 is like a glimpse into one of the parks throughout Poetland...

Why the picture of court grip? I haven't read all the articles yet, but the titles don't seem to indicate court grippage...
I’m really curious about that product.
Erik O - January 10, 2012
I get free Eastman catalogs
never buy, like to browse. They are a D Wade product, basically just stick pads for your shoes.
LJ Hann - January 10, 2012
I'm curious to anyone who's tried them
I could use all the help I can get on the court. The working world has not been kind to my basketball ability.
Erik O - January 10, 2012
LOL…not sure why, but the DC editior provided 3 pictures of that thing…Thought I’d change up the DC picture vs the usual nba action pic.

The Clips deserve a much better anthem than that weak attempt.

I kinda agree that the clips aren't a finished product
Yet, but seems like I hear this “we’re not ready yet” rhetoric from VDN a little too often. I thought half the reason he was let go of from the bulls is he failed to claim ownership of any of the faults his team made. For some reason it feels like he’ll ride this “we still need to grow” thing for as long as possible. I bet he left Chicago saying the same thing about Drose…

I somewhat believe
under VDN, the product will never be finished.

+1
Dawool Huh - January 10, 2012
yep
just what I was getting at. I feel like he’ll always say it’s a work in progress. Every team needs to improve everyday, from the heat to the bobcats, I mean, sounds like he thinks this is something unique to the clips? I just hope by the end of the year he has other responses, and doesn’t just keep saying that this process has to be given a chance to run it’s course and promising improvement in the future.
obviously the Bulls found the “shortcut” to becoming contenders…. hahaha
osamu - January 10, 2012
Whoa. I was convinced it was Wednesday for like two hours
LL losing his grip on the days of the week.
Did the Clips win last night?
John Raffo - January 10, 2012
Let's GO!!
If we wing those three games, I promise myself to throw a mini-party on Sunday
kikyexcel - January 10, 2012
Oh shoot! I just got what the hell the citizenry was talking about!!…this week is turning out to be a crazy a** week at work and it’s spilling onto my "real" job! Plus I want to watch the Heatles! Sorry folks and thanks to editor who corrected my error!

Game 9 Preview
Really? No mention of BUTLER?
SurfinQ00 - January 10, 2012
30%? Ehhh maybe he should step inside the arc...
Erik O - January 10, 2012
thats cool the less they know the better for us
Final692 - January 10, 2012
Or Mo Williams for that matter
NewCavsfan - January 10, 2012
33%?
I think the writer should have been more specific. THIS year (in only 6 games) it looks like CP3 is the only good shooter. If you look at career averages, obviously Mo is right up there with the best, at almost 39% shooting.
Erik O - January 10, 2012
Oh shucks
I guess Brian Cook can be mentioned too right?
JackduhSun - January 11, 2012
I try not to.
