Just be glad someone didn't get ejected after the trade deadline, the universe might have imploded.
Haha! Just having fun
You do realize that Clippers have a losing record when one of their guys is ejected from a game since 2015-16 season, right? I forgot the numbers since Kawhi Leonard joined the team. Until a couple of months ago, I always operated under the assumption Clippers were winless whenever a player was ejected, so I played the percentages. The fact they were able to win this game after going 55 games without an ejection this season, and following the worst 3-1 collapse in NBA history which forced the franchise to behave like the Good Samaritan Spurs speaks a lot about their desire to become something better.
Unfortunately, thanks to Morris's ejection, critics are going to point to that moment as the catch all to Clipper's entire season. It's another way for them to say, "See, I TOLD YOU SO! Those weird coaching moves, not taking opponents seriously, their six-game losing streak. That ejection is PROOF something's completely wrong with Clippers." So yeah, I do take ejections seriously as part of the team's mental make-up. Imagine how Clippers would have behaved with Irving on the team - dodged a big bullet right there.
What's done is done. Clippers have their first ejection of the season, and now opposing teams will use this fact to their advantage in trade talks. I'd recommend Clippers keep out of the market and hope for a buyout. (And as for Wall, they'll have to just buy him out themselves. Rather that than attach a draft pick like how the previous regime used to do it.)

I break, but I repair easily.
I cannot disagree. Now that Marcus has been ejected from a game, it is now certain the Clippers will not win the title.
Season is over.
Fire Ty too. I predict as long as he remains the Cippers coach, we will not win the title. I also predict that as long as Lawrence Frank remains the GM we will not win the title. As long as Reggie Jackson remains on the team, we will not win the title. As long as Steve Ballmer remains owner of this team, we will not win the title.
Prove me wrong, MFers. Season is over. Until we win the NBA championship, every win is meaningless. Every game is meaningless.
Are we having fun yet??
