LATE ADD:

I don't mean to be hard on Corey because I like him, but it's painful

just in the open:

"his offensive prowless"

"one of the premermial players in the league"

Blazers just a matchup problem for us. Gortat trying not to let Nurk get free

Doc really didn’t think to call a timeout ??? You can see when Harrell is getting tired our rim protection becomes non existent

Something is up with Lou Williams. He's been struggling for quite a few games save for some late game heroics. But we can't afford to have him coast till the 4th quarter. Not on the road and certainly not against good teams.

And I still don't understand this fixation with the 3 guard lineup. Doc puts it out there and then we wonder why we give up offensive rebounds.

Gortat did his placeholder starter job

left the game with 7 minutes played at plus+1


Trezz is our center but it's best he not start
he fouls a lot
and feasts on 2nd-teamers

2nd unit disastrous

Trezz and Bev minus-11 with 2 minutes left in the first half

Milos minus-9 in only 7 minutes

Head scratcher Doc not using Boban when Myers came in and the bench needed a boost in energy

Would of went with Boban at some point during that bench on bench run. Myers not the threat as Nurk. Harrell looked gassed and long as you keep Boban away from Nurk should be the energy boost we need. We can’t play the Blazers like we player other teams that are the perfect counter.

it's a team fail [Tobias excepted]



and I dunno if Bobi's the cure on defense





Bobi's a two-edged sword
we forget about the times Doc's put him in and we fall another 6 points behind in a minute


But true, it's shaping up as a Bobi night, LOL

Gortat is old and slow but damn does this man clear a lot of space with those screens lol

Let Gortat get his minutes tonight

Doc did not panic and break the glass, LOL



Clips take the lead 68-66
25-8 run

Gortat plus+13
Avery plus+11

plus/minus is so cool when you follow it in-game

THat lay up by Bradley lol

Great 3rd quarter, I like the adjustment to start doubling. Harris having an amazing game. Need to carry the momentum into the 4th and finish this one strong.

I love seeing an aggressive SGA. He needs to be more aggressive and play down hill like Lou likes to do. Great half time adjustments by Doc. And stellar play by the starting unit in that quarter

Please don’t force it on defense playing Harrell Doc.

Sometimes the best change is no change. After the 3rd Quarter, all the starters are plus+13 or higher!!

[The bench are all minus-9 or worse!]

With 9 minutes left, Gortat is +16, Harrell minus-10. Your call, bro.
