You gotta love Sindarius who in my heart is more a Clipper than a number of fellows wearing the uniform now. Great attitude, hard worker, super teammate, defensive grit.
Hanging on to his career by the threadiest of threads--now on a two-way with Orlando who just traded away all their best players.

It's nice to see you've finally come around to what I was saying about Sin when he was actually a Clipper.

2 1/2 years ago I predicted Sindarius would soon be out of the league. Unfortunately true for all practical purposes: Since then he has logged fewer than 200 NBA minutes for a grand total of 34 points. To put that in context, garbage time Daniel Oturu has already logged 107 minutes and scored 35.

Terry Stotts is getting canned if it's another first round exit.

There's already been reports that he's gone next year

I kinda feel sorry for trezz even though he went to the media about last year like a punk but I am started to feel vindicated as a clippers fan.

Denver loses again. Looks like Clippers can lock up the 3rd seed

Blake was giving Jokic fits. Damn, I really wish we could have him and Boban back to help us beat Denver.

With Sixers lost tonight and our win, both team is at 47-23. Our next 2 games are gainst G leaguer squads so we should be able to pull 49-23. If we somehow managed to get finals we'll have the homecourt advantage regardless who the opponent is. Just sayin

So we decided to focus on 1st round matchup rather than finals. Okeyyyy.

What I would give to have Tatum as our 2nd star
Another playoff flop Westbrook game. That Thunder big 3 is one of the biggest SMH's in recent history..

Can't blame it all on Russ when Beal didn't show up. Also, Scott Brooks was doing his best Doc Rivers impression. No gameplan on offense besides "bail me out with isos," and he kept making Beal guard Tatum with no adjustments even when it wasn't working.

Also just a bad matchup, Celtics for all their issues have just better talent. I like Westbrook and Beal a lot better against the Pacers without Oladipo and no real stars besides Sabonis.

I hope the reffing at the end of the Lakers vs Warriors game is a reminder as to why you'd be crazy to want to play them in the first round...

Reffing is an excuse. The Warriors lost because of all the sloppy turnovers they had. And LeBron hit a nice shot.
And LeBron is CLEARLY hobbled right now so this would have been the best time to take them out but I suppose we'll just see them in the hopefully WCF now when his ankle is feeling better.

That and the game-winner by LeBron.
