I feel this is like an annual thing, Clippers losing at Milwaukee in a frustratingly close game. Kawhi usually gets blanketed in these affairs. I did miss the game and only saw highlights. I thought there were a lot of good missed shots when the game got close in the 4th. Also Kris Dunn seemed to have the ball in his hands a lot because Powell was out. They just need to bounce back.

Why can't we feed Zu during scoring droughts? I don't get it. Harden & Kawhi pounding the rock until the shot clock reads 3 seconds then dumpling it off the Dunn?? The foul hunting threes that Dame got killed us. Lopez's half court one second left on the shot clock heaves all net.. SMH

What are the coaches watching? If the ball is sticking in Leonard and/or Hardens hands call a timeout. It’s not rocket science to call plays for Zu.

already more productive than Mann was in a week

and Simmons is 2/3/3

add in DJJ, Coffey and Batum
it'll take a little time but I think Ty can whip this into a rotation

these guys produce


OTOH, the bench was ass
AGAIN

Each played 20 minutes:

DJJ minus-11
Bogi minus-10
Simmons minus-9

Zu was also minus-8. Everyone else was no worse than minus-2. Hey, these guys are strangers to each other, a pickup team. The game was lost with them on the floor. These things take time.

I agree that Zubac needs to be featured more, but posting up Lopez wasn't working that great as he is quite a solid post defender

Hope we get Norm back next game. Really miss him in that 4th quarter when Harden and Kawhi both sucked. Coffey had a rough game with some terrible fouls. Good to see Bogi had a good game, he's the anchor of our 2nd unit.
