I'd love to be optimistic, but this is a rerun of the Kings game, the Timberwolves game, etc. and it always ends up being a humiliating loss.

its the playoffs, our best players are going to play 40 mins. Lets just cut it before the half.

Meanwhile in reality, Doc will continue playing all our worst defenders in lineups together when we're already getting torched.

denver is more than capable of blowing a 20 pt lead. I've seen them do it all season.

Get ready for another 6/7-game slog as Doc once again spends another series not making adjustments or keeping the team focused. The Lou/Reggie/Trez lineup should have been abandoned last series, but here we are watching it get torched yet again. :roll:

whatever the case, the second unit has to figure something out.


Trezz still looks way off to me. But the starters were just as bad as the bench. Just gotta stop the bleeding for now.

Wow giving up in 1st quarter. Superfan.

I'm right there with you. if the nuggets win this, they deserve it. We got 2 quarters to make something real happen though.

Boy, you just couldn't wait until they weren't playing well. That's when you comment the most but go ghost when they're playing well. This gets old really fast...

How does Doc not have this team prepared to play?

Literally everyone in the world is expecting the Clippers to be bipolar and have a let down today.
He doesn't have this team ready to play so defeat that stigma and narrative? To not trick off a game against a good opponent?

This is a blatant lie and you just can't handle any criticism of Doc.

at least like 4 or 5 really sloppy plays that could easily have been avoided. these guys have to get it together.

Tried to get back a 20-point deficit with one play. Step it up on D, keep your cool on O.

Now that we're putting stops together, we keep tricking off possessions.

wtf.
The game from hell.

But we had a couple of those against Dallas.

told you b-tches. They got a quarter and a half left in them. I've seen denver fold.
