2-1 road trip would be nice.

A Ben Simmons sighting would be nice.

I thought he was out the entire road trip.

With this org, I believe everything. I believe anything. I believe nothing.

So, Simmons took a hit to the knee that resulted in inflammation and stiffness. It was still bad enough they said he wasn't going to be making the road trip of 3 games in 4 days (understandable). However, now, they have him listed as questionable meaning he would have to fly across the country in order to "potentially" play and then fly back with the team again.

Doesn't make a lot of sense having him do that vice receive treatment back at the home facility until the team returns.

So, it must be one of 2 things:
1. The lone person left from the Sterling era is completely inept and thinks this is a good idea
2. Those Magic City chicken wings are not to be missed

Turnovers a problem not even 3 minutes in.

Too many second chance opportunities.

How are we down only 5?

Needed that 3 by Batum.

Gotta take care of the ball.

Much better start to the 3rd. Leonard and Zu doing most of the damage.

This'll be the 6th game in a row Batum will play over 28 minutes.

Toldja--Ty's been babying his minutes all year. Strategic thinking.

Most of the damage done over last 3 minutes.

Trae Young may be an All-Star, but he is ass :nonono:

What a ridiculous 3rd quarter! Need to beat CHA, the next few games gonna be rough. Hopefully Norm will get in sooner than later. Nice win and great play by Simmons, I'm thinking we need this guy.

Good win! That 3rd quarter was nuts!

about time a team went ice cold against the Clippers- lately it has seemed that teams could shoot behind their backs and it would go in
