Favorite Clippers Player, All-Time: Eric Piatkowski

This is awesome. If posts were money, this sentence alone would be most valuable...wonder how many of our posters actually got to see Piatkowski play. The dude was money from downtown.

 

I've never seen a Piatkowski fan on a message board before, haha.

I got to see Eric P. #52 was a decent 3-pt shooter. Used to be the Clippers' longest-tenured active player (not all-time) before he retired:

*Corey's got 512 games for the Clippers - 104 shy of Eric P.

Year You Became a Fan: 2003-2004

 

Why You Became a Fan: Saw in them a better alternative as a city representatives in the game of basketball to Lakers. A lot of the Laker fans I personally knew back then behaved in an uncivilized, corrupt, offensive manner. I saw a connection between their behavior and their idolized players' behavior in Bryant, Fisher, Shaq, Horry, etc... and it never was pretty. The unfair referring in favor of Lakers regardless of their opponents also played role.

 

When I started watching NBA, I was expecting fair games, with teams having more or less an equal opportunity. Winning is important when there are fair conditions,thus for me watching one team having the best players due to bigger financial resources and networking - does not satisfy me as a fan. It does not properly measures strength, skill of any of the 30 teams and does not generate pride.That applies to any NBA team having an unfair advantage due to the system setup.

 

Favorite Clippers Player, All-Time: Maggette

 

Favorite Clippers Coach, All-Time: Anyone but crook Dunleavy

Year You Became a Fan: 2001-2002

 

Why You Became a Fan: Elton Brand

 

Favorite Clippers Player, All-Time: Elton Brand

 

Favorite Clippers Player, Current: T.B.D. I usually base these things on a big playoffs win or moment. Clippers haven't been too far in the playoffs yet. It might have been Reggie, but again, getting to the 2nd round is usually not enough, especially when you get swept.

 

Favorite Clippers Coach, All-Time: N.A.

 

Favorite Clippers Moment:

 

1) Holding New Orleans to "a pair if 8's" after halftime.

 

Scoring

1 2 3 4 T

NOK 30 21 8 8 67

LAC 25 22 21 21 89

 

2) Their next win at Utah, and it better be by more than a few points. I want to see a big win. Too many bad memories there for just a measly win like there was last year.
