Just bench Harden for the rest of the season. I've already seen more than enough of him in a Clippers uniform.

Harden, Kawhi, and PG deserve this. They just got beat at home by the worst team in the NBA with no stars. No heart. PG with 7 turnovers and Kawhi looking old

With this loss, Clippers are now tied with Spurs 3-6 (.333). Firmly in the lottery, and going to say 13th place.

For those asking if they are the worst in the league, you're gonna have to wait at least five games. Both Jazz and Grizzlies would need to win at least two games with the Clippers losing at least two more. But then you have to factor in the east with Pistons and Wizards. Detroit needs the same amount of wins as Utah and Memphis, but D.C. only needs one.

Overall, heartbreaking loss. And the brief moment where Harden was on the bench may be their only salvation.

I wouldn't recommend buying out Harden though. The last thing you want is him going to Nuggets for a free ring. Last time they did this was with Reggie Jackson, who Clippers traded for a position of need. Hornets bought out his contract, then joined Nuggets and got a free ring.

It’s probably the best for your franchise if Harden requests a trade now and you find some dumb **** to trade for him and recoup your assets

Harden deserves it more than anyone. Crying all summer and quitting on his team again because he feels entitled to a max contract even though he's terrible. Morey's probably watching these games and laughing his ass off at Harden.

Pretty sure there's a version of the Joker origin story where he's a Clippers fan that just snapped.

And took out Diabate. Wonderful.


Diabate minus-6 in 12 minutes. 2 pts, 3 rebs.
Tucker plus+4 in 13. 3 pts [a key 3pter], 2 rebs, 1 asst, 1 stl.

Minus-6 is not too bad for a 3rd/4th stringer in minutes we desperately need. But Tucker didn't hurt us either. Zu himself was minus-5 in his 23 minutes, although Harden's minus-28 is surely the culprit there. But we can't run Zu into the ground like we did last year. 30 mpg killed him. Gotta play it smart with him.

Trade him to the Knicks , they might give you RJ or Grimes and picks , ideal scenario

I doubt Denver would want him even off from waivers to ruin their chemistry and locker room

We lost by 5 points. Isn't that progress enough? I mean what are you all expecting? Sheesh.

Sense Of Urgency. None of them have really been known for it except Russ. Who, BTW, was second to T-Mann's plus+18 with a plus+10. It's no coincidence that the two guys best known for SOU finished on top of the heap.
