The Los Angeles Clippers had their media day at  their training facility in Playa Vista and there was a buzz about the up coming NBA season. Lamar Odom is now part of the Clippers and with him on their roster, and if Chris Paul, Blake Griffin and the rest of the team can stay healthy, they could go very far into the playoffs. The fact that their is a new attitude with the Clippers' front office, they are doing everything they can to get this franchise turn around and make them a championship caliber team. Having Lamar on this teams allows the offense too do so much more now, and if Chris Paul , Chauncey Billups, Caron Butler, DeAndre Jordan and Blake Griffin can stay healthy, the sky is the limit for the Los Angeles Clippers. " It feels go to be back in L.A. where i really wanted to play, yet it feels weird.," Lamar said."

Chris Paul knows with the players that are now his new team mates, he knows that they can make a big impact to their team, and even help them make to the NBA Finals. Everybody knows it's not about who you have on your roster, it's about playing the game on the court. No one wants too win a NBA Championship badder than Chris Paul and Blake Griffin. Chris Paul knows that he must stay healthy this season not just for offense, but he is a good defender also. Last year in the playoffs he played hurt , yet he gave his all to do what ever it would take for them to win against San Antonio.

Blake  Griffin  now has some new big bodies to help on defense in the post with 7'0" feet Ryan Hollins from UCLA and 6'10" Ronny Turiaf from Gonzaga and veteran 6'8" Grant Hill will give them much needed depth in the front court, and that should help them match up much better with the Lakers, San Antonio and Oklahoma in the west. Now with all the new parts added to the team it is now up to head coach Vinney Del Negro to make the parts fit, and run like a well oil machine. This should be a great season for Clippers' fans. you can check out more photos from the media day at www.tgsportstv.com, go to photo gallery 2 and scroll down to 2012 Los Angeles Clippers Media Day.
