NEW YORK — For those of you not on the Clippers' e-mail list, permit me to recap Mike Dunleavy's unforeseen capsizing last week.
Los Angeles severed heads with its general manager (and former coach) the media way . . . by modem. Too bad Dunleavy didn't get team president Andy Roeser's text message to please call the office until after the fact.
"I learned I had been fired from the Internet," Dunleavy told me later that night. "I was all set to scout the ACC Tournament (in Greensboro, N.C.) and had spent a few hours at the club playing some golf and doing other things. When I came out of the clubhouse and turned on my phone my message box was full."
