LOS ANGELES -- The thrill is gone, J. Malik McDowell Jersey .J. Redick says. Dropping five of seven games, including a crushing 17-point loss Wednesday to Golden State, will sap the strength and exhilaration from some of the best NBA teams.I think the big takeaway for me after the game (Wednesday) was just like, weve got to play with some joy, the Los Angeles Clippers guard told the Los Angeles Times. Basketballs meant to be fun. Were serious, youve got to be prepared, youve got to follow the game plan and all that, but I just think were better when we play with joy.The Warriors certainly do that on a nightly basis. Im not going to continue to compare the two teams, but theyre sort of the standard right now, along with the Spurs and the Cavs. Those are the teams that have won the last three championships. Those teams play with joy.The Clippers will attempt to find glee again when Anthony Davis and the New Orleans Pelicans visit Staples Center on Saturday night.The Clippers have enjoyed seeing the Pelicans many times, particularly at home where they have captured seven consecutive wins. Los Angeles has won 14 of the last 18 meetings between the two. In their last matchup on Dec. 2, the Clippers rolled to a 114-96 win in New Orleans behind Blake Griffins 27 points.However, Griffin is a game-time decision for Saturdays game, apparently ailing from a knee injury. Griffin endured one of his poorest outings of the season against the Warriors, managing just 12 points on 5-of-20 shooting from the floor.Despite roaring out of the gate with an NBA-best 14-2 mark, the Clippers (16-7) have struggled recently. Some of their troubles have resulted in a large disparity in points in the paint, where they have been been outscored by 20 or more points in the past two games.They also had some controversy stir up after the loss to Golden State with former Warriors and now Clippers forward Marreese Speights complaining about his teammates crying about officiating.First we need to really stop and leave the refs alone, Speights said.Speights backed off that assessment a day later.Its just something I should have just said it in different kind of ways, he said, according to the Times.The Pelicans (7-16) have lost four in a row but reached perhaps their lowest point on Thursday when the Philadelphia 76ers ended a 23-game road skid by beating the Pelicans 99-88. Afterward, Pelicans coach Alvin Gentry was asked if he feared his job might be in jeopardy.I really dont give a (expletive) about my job status, Gentry said, according to the New Orleans Advocate. Im going to work hard and coach until the day they tell me Im not the coach here anymore. It doesnt matter. I dont ever worry about that.Davis has been the lone constant for New Orleans, averaging a league-high 31.4 points per game and 2.77 blocks before Fridays games. His 11.4 rebounds per game ranked seventh.The Pelicans also have gotten a boost from guard Jrue Holiday, who is averaging 15.4 points per game. Cheap Seattle Seahawks Jerseys .C. United of Major League Soccer. United chose the defender in the second round of the 2013 MLS re-entry draft. Frank Clark Jersey . Tests earlier this week revealed a Grade 2 left hamstring strain for Sabathia, who was hurt in last Fridays start against San Francisco. Its an injury that will require about eight weeks to heal. He finished a disappointing campaign just 14-13 with a career-worst 4. http:///...-jimmy-graham-jersey . As he recorded his 23rd and 24th points of the evening, a segment of the sellout Air Canada Centre crowd expressed their appreciation for the Raptors point guard with a smattering of MVP chants. More NRL games will be played in regional locations as a sweetener for the leagues decision to scrap the annual NSW City-Country Origin clash.The NRL on Monday confirmed the 88-year-old fixture will be scrapped after the 2017 edition in Mudgee.While it is disappointing that we cannot fit this game into the schedule post-2017, we are determined to take more rugby league to regional NSW and other communities throughout the country, NRL head of football Brian Canavan said on Monday.In the draw we will be releasing shortly, there will be a host of games played throughout the country and that is a trend which will continue.More than 8000 fans turned out in Tamworth in May this year as City won in an 44-30 upset, with the traditional fixture also selling out grounds in Wagga Wagga and Dubbo in reecent years. Eddie Lacy Jersey. But the pre-State of Origin clash was no longer viewed as a genuine trial for NSW spots, even with 2016 Blues debutants Tyson Frizell (Country), Jack Bird (Country) and Josh Mansour (City) running out this year.Country NSW has produced some of the finest players to wear the green and gold and we will pay tribute to them during this final match, Country Rugby League boss Terry Quinn said.Players like Mick Cronin, Blocker Roach, Boyd Cordner, Tyson Frizell and so many others learnt their craft in country areas and went on to become greats in our game.The 2017 City-Country clash will be played at Glen Willow Regional Sports Stadium on May 7. Cheap NFL Jerseys Cheap NFL Jerseys China Cheap Jerseys From China Cheap NFL Jerseys Authentic Wholesale Jerseys China Cheap NFL Jerseys China NFL Cheap Jerseys ' ' '
