Hoping for a trap game…for Denver!

[KL2]

What did the Mavs beat us by a few years ago? 50? Yeah, I think Denver might top that.

[Scoundreldays]

This game metaphorically feels like Negan's introduction in the Walking Dead and the Clippers are Rick's group on their knees waiting to get their heads bashed in.

[ERClips]

Murray’s not playing though so that’s a big deal for us. We’re gonna get a win eventually. Fingers crossed about this seemingly unlikely game.

How Ballmer still takes his excuses seriously and hasn't fired him yet is beyond me.

Bad move, I know he's a rookie but we need all the height we can get right now.

[PeteyPablo]

What are the keys to this game?

Is it just a height thing lately , as far as the rebounding? It also seems to me the opponents are much more energized in the hustle department. Going after loose balls and rebounds.

Kawhi is 6'7' 7'3' wingspan
George is 6'8'
Zubac 7'0"
Westbrook is 6'4"
Harden is 6'4"

Vs Denver @ Denver, lol.

Unluckily for the Clippers, you don't get trap games for other teams when you have multiple stars, no one is coming saying, "this is going to be an easy game", even if you have been losing. Everyone is saying, "they aren't going to get going against us".

Diabate at 6'11 has taken the backup 5 role, Kobe is 6'7, so height isn't necessarily what he brings to the table.

At least he'll get some burn in the G-League.

Also, Ballmer doesn't know basketball to be firing anyone for things like this lol. What's Ballmer going to say, "by my basketball evaluation abilities I think Kobe should be in the rotation and not in the G-League"

[KL2]

Brown, if nothing else, could be used for 6 fouls.

A few minutes of burn to give the bigs rest from the high altitude and/or foul trouble.

I wouldn’t dream of him locking up Joker or Gordon. But to send away size when we’re so up the creek lacking in that area is exactly a Clipper move.

I don't mean he's super tall. More for the bench lineup since they are pretty short unless we stagger the big 4.

[playaloc916]

Kobe Brown reminds me of a homeless man's version of OG Anunoby. Similar build, could potentially grow into a decent 3&D option after a few years. Hopefully his G-league stint is beneficial for his growth, because the team could really use him now.

Gotta have those bench warmers.

FTR, the Ontario Clippers website lists Diabate at 6'9", 210 lbs.

Expecting us to get blown up by 30 so he will get playing time. Jk but for real hope he gets some burn. I won't be watching until we win a game first.

It doesn't take high-level basketball knowledge to see that what your underperforming coach says after losses never matches what he does, so what he's saying is just a litany of excuses.

I've always thought that the second unit should play slow. Minimum possessions for maximum time for the 1st unit to rest.

Harden is perfect for the job. When he is controlling the offense, time stands still.

[KL2]

All the talk of who should come off the bench maybe it should be Leonard. He’s become a spectator since the trade.

Only Zu can get blocked by guys like Jackson and Braun.
