My gut before last night was there would be a good chance (he would play Wednesday)so Jaron Faulds Jersey I'd probably lean that way. He looked good walking today."MORE: | | Source:.Context:The Clippers defied the odds without Paul in Game 1, defeating the Rockets, 117-101. Paul had a career performance against the Spurs in a series-clinching Game 7 with 27 points to set up this series with Houston, so Rivers and the rest of the Clippers would be much more confident Michael Jordan Jersey with their All-Star point guard on the court.Relevant info: Paul, averaged 19.1 points, 10.2 a sists and 1.9 steals during the regular season.
