As All-Star weekend dawns on us, the ongoing trend of anybody from the Los Angeles Clippers organization not participating in the All-Star festivities this weekend continues. The last time anybody on the Clippers had a significant impact at an All-Star Weekend was probably Brent Barry in his warm-ups. It's unfortunate, but as the story goes, the Clippers seem to be one pretty unfortunate franchise.


This season has been no different as they are at the near bottom of the Western Conference, at 13-40, tied for the third worst record in the entire NBA. Looking back at the off season, things weren't supposed to be like this. Baron Davis was talking about coming to the Clippers, because he wants to be in LA to produce, and specifically, play with Elton Brand - and take the Clippers to the playoffs.

Then Brand stopped replying to Coach Mike Dunleavy's texts, but somehow the Clippers worked it out, still keeping Baron Davis and bringing in Marcus Camby and Ricky Davis. The Clippers still had an, arguably...playoff team. But the Clippers never had a full squad during all of training camp, and injuries have plagued the team throughout the season.

But weeks later, the Clippers are beginning to show some light, and the once-ridiculed Mike Dunleavy doesn't seem to appear so incredibly foolish anymore.

If you looking for the latest crowning achievements from All-Star point guard, Baron Davis, you won't find them on the court. Adding the notch of filmmaker to his belt of All-star NBA player and film critic (click here for Baron Davis' movie reviews), 29 year old Davis has taken to the streets to chronicle the infamous history and turf war between the Bloods and Crips in LA as well as the lasting effects the gangs have had on the community. Davis' describes the documentary as "a social awareness film told from both sides for the audience to educate themselves and formulate their own opinion." With narration by Oscar award winning actor, Forest Whitaker, the documentary that Variety says "It's impossible to look away from the screen" takes you from slavery to the notorious gangs origins and current state of the gangs today.

The NBA season is over, the champion has been crowned, and the draft has come and gone. It is now free agency time, and already there is a big name talent leaving his team for another team. This is not another story of a man who wants more money. This is the story of a man who had his feelings hurt as his coach publicly criticized him in a harsh way.

After hearing about Baron Davis' departure, fans of the Golden State Warriors have to be feeling a sense of déjà vu. Once again, an all-star and team leader has left the Warrior franchise during a time of success.
