Nice Game Thread MK!!
Let's start off HOPING that the reffing is better than last night's game, I thought Donaghy was re-instated.
The Clips need to come out w/ energy & play an entire game. I'm thinking........Clipper Win!

If DeAndre and Butler come out with another abysmal performance and our starters don't give an effort for 3 quarters only to have our bench will us back to a comeback, then we need to start seeing new faces in the starting lineup. This trend must stop.

Good to see DeAndre going early, and was that a rare post move for the first offensive possession of the game? Would like to see a little more of that, I mean it's not crazy to expect him to be able to hit a hook shot once in a while against good matchups.

He hardly ever does, he's pretty automatic on the pick and pop from about 15

He knows his range. He was killing it from the elbow yesterday.

That might have been the easiest look K-Mart will receive all night.

I would be nice if Bledsoe could really assert himself!

We never had possession, the clock should not have reset.

Not the worst start. Chris needs to be more aggressive, because if the defense feels he's in scoring more, they will close in harder on him and it will open up the floor for the screen man and other guys.
