When 17 and 12 as a rookie is a bad game, you're doing alright.

***Official Blake Griffin vs The Trailblazers Thread***

4-16 Clippers at The 8-11 Blazers, who have lost their last six games, during which they have shot a measly 39% from the field. Clippers have been bolstered by the return of Chris Kaman, who scored 10 points and nabbed 6 rebounds in his first game back. Clips lost a close one at Denver, a game which saw The Nuggets shoot 59 free throws.

Game time is 8:00 CST. Clips are 0-9 on the road this year, and in the series history, The Blazers have won 50 of 58 games in Portland. You do the math...

Clippers ride a strong 3rd quarter to cut it to 76-64.

If Blake could hit his free throws it would be even closer.
