Mar. 1, 1993
The All-Star Game featured Shaquille O'neal coming off of the bench, performing well with 12 points and 8 rebounds in the Western Conference 118-102 victory. Michael Jordan won MVP honors however, by putting the Eastern squad on his back with 38 points. The rookie game was won by Sophomores, but Shaq had a dominant 22 points and 15 boards to win the MVP honors. Also playing were Terrell Brandon and Paul Graham.
The Clippers are 34-23, currently #5 in the Western Conference behind the resurgent Los Angeles Lakers. We lost Dennis Scott for 23 days midway through the month, and Kendall Gill has found himself starting for the team again. Of course, Scott returns in less than two weeks, meaning Gill's stint as a starter will probably end soon. Mutombo and Brandon are slowly grumbling now for more playing time. Mugsy Bogues isn't panning out to be the assists-leader we hoped he'd be, he's on the 2nd year of his 3-year contract worth 8 mil per year. Brandon will likely be given the chance to shine at PG, considering he's playing close to 22 mpg.
