Kenyon Martin

Yesterday, Kenyon Martin signed with the Clippers! I did not think this would be the team that he would sign with. I thought he would sign with the Lakers. Now I'm wondering if he will be the back-up to Blake Griffin. I think he will be.

Kenyon Martin was the 1st pick in the 2000 NBA Draft by the New Jersey Nets. He's played as number 4 for most of his career, but he will be playing as number 2. During the lockout, he played in China. His team was the Xinjiang Flying Tigers. He's played for the New Jersey Nets and Denver Nuggets. He played for Cincinnati in college.

Do you think he will back-up Blake Griffin?

Los Angeles Clippers vs. New Jersey Nets (January 16, 2012)

Today, I went to the Clippers vs. Nets game with my friend Riley and my dad. It was my second year in a row going to the Clippers game on Martin Luther King Day. Chris Paul was questionable to play. We hoped that CP3 would play because of the rivalry between him and Deron Williams. Here were our pre-game selections:

Chris Paul ended up not playing. They brought in a D-league player named Courtney Fortson. He was about 5'5", but he was listed at 5'11". Courtney could dunk! At the end of the first quarter the Clippers were winning, 32-17. They were also winning after the second quarter, 53-40. The Clippers were winning after the 3rd, 74-63. And the Clippers ended up winning 101-91.

Chauncey Billups was 3 out of 5 from beyond the 3-point line.

Here are the stat leaders:
