I don't understand what you don't get. I'm saying it's a shame. He's given his all this year as a backup and a TON of passable NBA minutes we sorely needed.

But somebody has to sit and the team's rise in the OFF/DEF ratings corresponds with Amir losing minutes to Simmons and others getting healthy. His minus-5.3 per 100 possessions since the ASB is pretty much unplayable especially since nobody else is below Norman Powell's plus+0.7. Simmons is plus+6.6. That's a 12-point swing from Amir's minus-5.3. HUGE.

We already have a 9 to 10-man rotation and he's #11. Remember Willie Green? Started 60 games for us one year but barely sniffed the playoffs. Frankly, there has been a lot of shade thrown Amir's way by the internet Clipper commentariat. A lot of people should be happy.

I get it, but the tweet you made, Tom Van Dyke, made it seem like Coffey was bitching and complaining about having to sit, when I saw no reports of this. Yes, he hasn't been good at all and definitely needs to sit, but from all accounts there was no push back from him by having to get a DNP. Your tweet made it seem like he went off and pulled a Russell Westbrook and raised hell in the locker room because he didn't play. That's my point.


So you're agreeing with my point but you're still nattering at me about something I didn't even say. C'mon Mr. C, gimme a break here and stick to the sports.

So you're not "Tom Van Dyke" on Twitter/X?? You got the same avi as here and a guy from Philly in the bio. If so you're tweet suggested-created a scenairo that Coffey b*tched and cried at Lue for getting a DNP, but that's not the case. But, I digress. You gotta weird posting style. I give up

That 3rd quarter was magic. Harden's playmaking, Kawhi's unstoppable scoring, Norm's aggressiveness and versatility, and Zubac just owning the paint. I love watching this team.

Kawhi and Harden wearing this RED jersey reminds me of Toronto Kawhi and Houston Harden 8-)
