ALTERCATION DURING CLIPPERS PRACTICE CAUSES SUSPENSIONS
The reports are not yet clear, but it appears that an altercation between Clippers veteran Ben Wallace and newly signed James White.
The Clippers have made a statement that both players have been suspended. Ben Wallace will be suspended for 2 games while James White will be suspended indefinitely. Neither player is going on the trip to Oklahoma City. James White has probably ended his career as a Clippers as sources believe the Clippers will not extend a second 10-day contract.
Multiple sources also say that an ambulance was present at the practice. Rumor has it that Clippers GM KidJustin has been admitted to the hospital. No word on his condition.

16-4
Streak: 1WFord Center - Oklahoma City, OK Jan. 11, 2010 - 6:30 PM (PST) Matchups Russell Westrbook PG Baron Davis James Harden SG Eric Gordon Kevin Durant SF Wilson Chandler Jeff Green PF Blake Griffin Serge Ibaka C DeAndre Jordan CLIPPERS ESCAPE OKC WITH WIN DESPITE DURANTS 44 POINTS
THE FACTS: The Ford Center was buzzing as Oklahoma University star Blake Griffin entered the arena. The Clippers played well with many fans backing Blake Griffin, but Kevin Durant was not to be out done. He scored 20 points in the first half to keep the Thunder ahead. He would then score 17 in the 3Q alone, but the Clippers kept pushing. Wilson Chandler had an amazing game from beyond the arc, all while spending much of his time guarding Durant, with his performance earning him player of the game. Eric Gordon had a poor shooting night, but turned it on in the final minutes with big baskets to give the Clippers ahead in the final minutes.
THE STAT: Blake Griffin with another 35 point performance, 7 in a row and is not 0.3 points head of Kobe Bryant for the scoring leader
QUOTABLE: Serge Ibaka, "I don't see what all the Blake hype is about. Tomorrow we will go down to LA and I will show him how we dunk on Congo."
HOT: Wilson Chandler shot 5-7 from beyond the arc.
NOT: Eric Gordon shot a very poor 1-9 from 3 Point. However his 1 shot came when the game was tied at 108-108. The Clippers never trailed after Gordon hit his only 3 pointer
GOOD MOVE: Early in the game, Eric Gordon gets tricky with a dunk where he switched hands in mid-air to avoid Serge I-Blocka
BAD MOVE: Eddy Curry made his Clipper debut tonight. With a thin front court due to the Ben Wallace suspension, VDN put him in the final 30 seconds of the 3Q. He grabbed one rebound.....and almost proceeded to eat the ball. For some odd reason, the cameras never saw it and no such photograph has surfaced. It may be in the record books, but without seeing it with your own eyes, many do not believe it happened. The Closest thing we have is this sideline photo after the game.

Streak: 1WFord Center - Oklahoma City, OK Jan. 14, 2010 - 7:30 PM (PST) Matchups Baron Davis PG Russell Westrbook Eric Gordon SG James Harden Wilson Chandler SF Kevin Durant Blake Griffin PF Jeff Green DeAndre Jordan C Serge Ibaka THUNDER FIND REVENGE IN CLOSE GAME
THE FACTS: The Clippers played this game back-to-back, but the odd thing is playing against the same team again. This time the results were not the same however as Kevin Durant was looking for revenge. The Clippers started hot, still feeling momentum from last nights game, but as soon as the 2Q both teams ran out of gas. The Thunder would eventually take a lead as high as 15 and each time Blake Griffin and Eric Gordon chipped at the lead, Kevin Durant and Russell Westbrook matched every move and would end up on top at the end of regulation.
THE STAT: Blake Griffin with another 35 point performance, 8 in a row
QUOTABLE: Blake Griffin, "I'm putting this out there, if Ibaka wants to challenge me, why doesn't he? I'm telling the NBA I want to be in the dunk contest next month and dare Ibaka to come as well."
HOT: Eric Gordon was on fire in the first 3Q hitting 3's and dunk on everyone to get the Clippers back from down 15, but Kevin Durant was hot in the 4Q to bring the Thunder back from down 12 for the win.
NOT: Start of the 2Q, both teams combined for only 2 FG and 1 FT for 5 points in the first 4 minutes of the 2Q
GOOD MOVE: Another Baron Davis special off the glass, this time in traffic
BAD MOVE: With the Clippers down 2, Eric Bledsoe tires a cross court pass to Eric Gordon which was intercepted, while Blake was open in the post to tie to tie the game
Injuries: In the 1Q, James Harden fell hard and left the game with a lower back strain
Late in the 3Q, Al-Farouq Aminu landed wrong and has a server ankle sprain, he will be out for 2-4 weeks

Tonight Blake Griffin will face off against the Miami Heat. Then free agent LeBron James had the chance to sign with the Clippers in the offseason and play with Blake. But he decided to make the super friends with Wade and Bosh in South Beach. Blake has been arguably the best rookie #1 pick since LeBron James, so who will do better in their first meeting against each other? Predict who will win the matchup in the following stats:

Streak: 1LStaples Center - Los Angeles, CA Jan. 12, 2010 - 6:30 PM (PST) Matchups Baron Davis PG Mario Chalmers Eric Gordon SG Dwyane Wade Wilson Chandler SF LeBron James Blake Griffin PF Udonis Haslem DeAndre Jordan C Chris Bosh BLAKE DOMINATES LEBRON MATCHUP - GORDON STEALS THE SHOW
THE FACTS: The Clippers put on a show early not allowing a single field goal in the first 4 minutes of the game. LeBron and Wade would fight back to get the Heat back in the game. Blake Griffin had no match inside against either Haslem or Bosh and scored 51 (40 points after 3Q). LeBron would score 16 in the 2Q to give the Heat a lead, but Blake would help put the Clippers up by 1 at the half. The flow of the game was much closer in the 3Q as LeBron was able to get the Heat up 1 with 13 seconds left, but a Blake Griffin jumper with only 0.4 remaining put the Clippers ahead going into the 4Q. For most of the 4Q, VDN decided to play Blake at SF and with him and LeBron guarding each other for most of the 4Q, Blake scored 2 points and LeBron scored 0 points when the two were faced up against each other.
Jerry Stackhouse made his Clippers debut in the 1Q, but he could not keep up with Wade and got 2 fouls in 3 minutes. Ben Wallace also returned to action from his suspension.
THE STAT: Points per quarter: Blake had 13 in the 1Q, LeBron had 16 in the 2Q, Blake had 19 in the 3Q, Blake had 11 in the 4Q. Blake finished with 51 points making his streak to 9 in a row
QUOTABLE: LeBron James on Blake Griffin, "Wow..."
HOT: Eric Gordon had 7 3 pointers in the game, 3 coming in the 4Q
NOT: LeBron James 4Q, was held scoreless while Blake was guarding him, scored his first points of FT once Blake played PF against. Finished the quarter with only 4 points (2 FT and 1 FG)
GOOD MOVE: Dwyane Wade picked apart the Clippers veterans in a single move, blowing by Jerry Stackhouse then dunking on Ben Wallace
BAD MOVE: With the Heat down by 5 in the 4Q, LeBron went to the FT line to cut the gap, but missed both FTs
