Get the W and stay healthy. Please.

Is PG serious right now?

Hardens pregame injury is the most Clippers thing.

Getting Zu more involved on offense is vital to this team.

I don't like shooting 60.5%/50%/100% and being up only 12 at half, but fortunately it is the Hornets.

EDIT- and now the lead is 5.

Okay, I need to know: what is switching? Why do Clippers do this so much? What's the theory behind it?

I couldn’t believe it, his hand was pushing through and knocking the ball out of bounds.

When was the last time our opponent didn't shoot well from 3s? I honestly don't remember.

Yeah, their 3-point defense is a huge problem. They need to redo their schemes.

Against a lottery team. PG with a monster game. Against a lottery team. Of course I'm happy that we won but I'm expecting both Zu and PG to finish this season strong. A brutal schedule awaits us.

We need to win the easy ones (starting with today), and hopefully Kings game. Then just one of the others should be enough to secure our seed.

The kings game will be tough as hell.

It's pretty obvious the switch everything D makes them lazy. They always go under screens or double team a guy who has no business being double teamed and give up open looks. After all that fails they try to play straight up but now the other team is hot and starts making them with hands in their faces. I'm just hoping that this type of D is for the regular season and they fight over screens in playoffs because it matters. But who knows, the effort level of this team is hard to gage from one moment to the next. Despite that 3 game streak secured finally! Take Sac so we can have a tie breaker against one team at least.
