I hope that we can end our losing streak tonight. Celtics played last night but they lost. I'm sure they see this as a winnable game so it won't be easy on our end.
I've been an LA Clipper fan since 1998 and that will never change. I hate our new logo and jerseys!

Go ahead, keep doubling Lou... Trez will be happy to take those easy points.

Now this team is all of a sudden scared to shoot threes. We're regressing all the way back to antiquated Doc-ball.

All the trade speculation is ruining this team, and our front office just continues to drag their feet on choosing a direction to go in. It's really getting old.

Love watching Wallace earn his stripes in the NBA.

Hopefully he blossoms and hopefully we are the organization that finds talent everywhere...not just one of 30 organizations that sits there and says, “well hurr durr, we’d be better if Paul George signed here” like that took some level of genius to think up that scenario.

Looks like the honeymoon is over.

Are we back to looking for lottery slots or thinking we’ll make the playoffs despite the injuries?

I'm officially back on Team Tank. This team is not making the playoffs, let's be real now - might as well get the best draft position possible. Missing the playoffs might also finally get Doc fired so we can bring in a real coach.

And it's time for the front office to **** or get off the pot with the direction of the team in general. The DJ trade rumors have become a full-blown distraction. That's evident from how the team is playing lately.

Lol at Blake throwing the ball at the ref.

You’re 29 in a few months.
Almost a decade in the league.

Grow up.
Wtf!

Huge Blake fan, but even I can't deny that he's been acting like an immature brat lately. Once again, we need a REAL coach - one who will actually tell Blake to cut the **** and just play.

Honeymoon’s over.

Beating the Rockets and having them charge our locker room was our championship.

Teodosic has looked terrible on defense in the past 2 games. Perhaps it was mainly due to match up problems but he suddenly looks very slow. I’m concerned actually

The defensive energy is down across the board. You can only burn at 110% for so long. Milos in particular seems fagged out--he also only had 2 points.

Lou was only human tonight but the real question is whether Blake's ever going to have an alpha dog game again. This was the kind of game a max player puts on his back and justifies the big dough.

Ya and he's not being much better offensively tbh. Not gonna be too hard on him cause he's still getting adapted to the game after all, but he's gotta be much better if we're gonna be a good team.

Blake’s comments about the ref not being able to effin catch aren’t acceptable either.

You threw the ball at him from like 30 or more feet.

This guy serious?
