Tonight will be my first regular season game in years! I saw the team in Chris Paul's first year when they played a preseason game in Vegas, but an old Navy buddy was going to the game, so I decided to fly into town and go with him. I'm staying at the Intercontinental Downtown LA and just noticed I can see the Staples Center sign from my room! I'm pumped! If any of you guys are at the game tonight, I'll be in section 116 wearing Vegas Golden Knights gear! (It's an inside joke between me and my friend out feels really weird coming to a game and not wearing anything with Clippers on it!)

I want to see Shamet to go off; establish the 3-pt threat that he's meant to do.

Sham just said in the pregame, if he can draw the opps into chasing him off the 3-pt line, he's doing his job, opening up things for KL and PG. Doc just said he'll start sometimes, sometimes not, the "fluid" starting lineup thing. Shamet is the real x-factor as far as team chemistry. We really don't know yet which combinations will work with him.

Eh heh... so ya got it down, in theory... so now how about doing it in the games.

And no one is "chasing you off" the 3-pt line, unless you're MAKING 3-pt shots.

Lets go, enough yapping.

That was his point.

Harkless starts, not Shamet. And the Clippers win the tip...

Shamet should be putting up Paul George-numbers in 3pt attempts.

A quiet thought to myself: Something "off" with Montezl? Not getting off the ground like normal.

I hate admitting I prefer ESL Corey to Chauncey's low energy
he's not umming and uh-ing or making up new words
and he does seem excited by the action, as opposed to Chauncey's boring stories about the old days

and he just started a funny diss on Brian's $17 suit
but afterwhile I couldn't understand a word he was saying

I never thought I would miss Mike Smith :roll:

Zubac played 8 minutes
Trezz played the next 9

are you really going to troll EVERY SINGLE GAME THREAD with this BS for the rest of what may be the greatest season in Clippers history?
