Leonard can’t buy one to save his life right now. Reminds me of the Bucks game. His shots and spots but rimming out.

Nice block by Mason.

kawhi missing everything is hurting a lot. you'd feel better about it with powell in the game but not the case tonight.

you also expect kawhi to turn it on in the 3rd with a start like this so maybe no big deal.

wooooooo that plumlee block

i'd wanna note the dynamics of this exact lineup - gordon and bones as extra ballhandlers/playmakers means what for PG? well in this case, off the previous suns miss, bones gets the rebound, pushes it ahead instead of deferring to PG (who's in the backcourt), gets it to gordon and gordon does a very non-luke thing and pushes ahead for the score.

if that's any indication of what's to come, it's a transformational change for our offense with our PG-on/kawhi-off minutes.

EJ with 3 first quarter shots, matching Luke's season high.

Really though, glad we have a second and third bench piece that looks to score instead of being so damn passive

Are our "stars" actually going to do anything while they're busy demanding roster moves? The rest of the team that's supposedly not good enough is moving heaven and earth to keep us afloat.

i was kinda thinking about the best way to describe the new additions

they're basically "do-something" guys. batum/covington/luke, very reactionary, so not so much. paul george's do-something is really, really bad when it's too much. reggie was not a good "do-something" guy, despite the team asking him to. but bones/gordon/plumlee? all three are really invested in making something happen.

great additions

Someone want to guard Okogie?

Batum been those open shots again.

Gordon is a welcomed sight.

Oh that was a brutal TO.

as much as i love zubac, if you told me the team were to package him/morris/whoever for a star in the offseason and keep plumlee as the starter i'd be like "well, alright then"

I am so sick of PG, it's not even funny. You just know he's going to be begging for roster moves again after this game without a hint of irony.

Plumlee impressing me so far.

I never really paid attention to his game.

Erica Gordon playing like a 21 year old rookie . WOW,it feels like yesterday when Clippers drafted him.
