O/U Avery Bradley 30 minutes of action?

Looks like the team would rather let Gallo get his back rested 100% rather than travel with the team.

Is Lou out as well?

1. Give up height and go small ball. Check.
2. Avery Bradley still on the lineup. Check.
3. Presumably losing record with this lineup according to B-Ball Ref's Lineup Finder: Check and Mate.

Yeah, Doc's given up.

Got to love it lmao Bradley the one who plays horrible and Gortat got benched again.

Motley shaking off the rust protecting paint now

Good start. Spurs may be sleeping on this team!

Loving the pick and roll defense with Mot and he’s getting up and down the floor quick. These guys needed a shake up. Just playing with new faces

Let’s go!

I have been telling you guys all season that all Doc has to do is bench Gallo and Lou. I'm just glad he finally listened to me.

Ok ok I’ll take bi polar Bradley in the game. It’s rare we get the bad and the good but it’s working tonight. I’ll take more 50/50 in games

So far seems like just giving Motley all of Mike Scott’s minutes and trim some from others would of worked

Win the start of the third we should take the game

Savory Bradley appetizing with 15 pounds of beef with Tobias Hummus two units shy of main course. If he wants to be in Tohru Honda's Fruits Basket, he'll need to go Fat Joe on the Spurs to cement his status as the next Tamale Kingpin.

*hears boos from The Starters crowd*

It's about damn time!


In other news...



It seems other teams always seem to circle the Clippers on their calendars for return dates.

Clippers are going to win this one. Doc was just waiting for the ultimate win-or-go-home game to be motivated. Doubles for Tobias Harris for All-Star reasons.

- Win, Harris makes the All-Star Game (by coaches vote, but he'll likely be snubbed*), they're back in the playoffs
- Lose, nobody makes All-Star Game, Clippers will tank, fire sale to happen

* Chances increase if he can get himself ejected from a game

These ultimatum games just drive me on edge. For Doc, it's a perfect psychological move of daring the opponent to mercy kill them, but instead they get caught up in how easy this game is going to be because of the opponent's downward spiral, but it doesn't work. I always fall into this comfort trap of sorts whenever I'm playing Bejeweled 2 at Worldwinner. It's annoying, frustrating and diabolically cruel.

For once, Doc Rivers, don't toy the opponent's emotions. Pretty soon, they'll gonna catch up to your antics and tune you out.

It's the Clippers bad luck. Mavericks are hoping that facing the Clippers in general will mend whatever issues the front office had with Dennis Smith Jr.'s continued service for Dallas, and that he'll stay with them for the rest of this season.

Damn, didn't even realize the game was on but that's a big win and to hold San Antonio to 95 points at home is amazing considering how short handed the Clippers were.
