Clippers '07: All for the Team
Tue Nov 13, 2007 10:09 am
----------------
The 2005-06 Clippers
Marched into the playoffs
And came within
A Game of
The Conference Finals
---------------
The 2006-07 Clippers
Had a up and down season
Yet made the playoffs
For a second straight year
---------------
The 2007-08 Clippers
Are hoping to
Go to new heights
A championship
Is the goal
The only way
To get there
Is individual sacrifice
For the greater goal
Its All for the Team

Mike Dunleavy
Was late this morning
The first day back
And the head coach
Is late
No one is waiting for him
And he is late
By only his own schedule
-----------
He parked his car
In first spot he saw
The farthest spot from
The Arena
A completely vacant lot
With only a singular
Figure strolling across the
Black pavement
-----------
The lights come on
In his office
The first time since the
Night the Clippers exited
-----------
The Draft
Contract negotiations
Trades
-----------
The off-season is where
He plans to do
His greatest work
-----------
A point guard
A shooting guard
A sixth man
Three players
-----------
The point guard
Cassell is not
Good enough
For the Finals
-----------
Livingston cannot
Play the point
The way he demands
-----------
The draft does not
Offer much help
At floor general
For the Clippers position
-----------
Who do we want?

Uh, well the poetic format is definitely an innovative concept, but it really isn't working for me personally. Also, a lack of crucial basic things like team rosters and game settings hurt it too. Finally, Brand and Livingston are out for the season, and the Clippers will likely be well... the Clippers for the next 5 years at least.

The facts and numbers will pick up once the season starts/nears. The current format is the fiction made up independent from Live.
