Zubac vs Gobert, please.

Can we please see more of Ivica Zubac tonight. Measure him up against the best, see how he holds up.

Can the guy get 25 minutes? Come on.

And of course, our current controversy--should we risk losses by throwing 4th quarter minutes at Zubac? Yes, in theory it would be better to let Trezz get a blow instead of playing the whole quarter. But is a rested but untested Zubac better than a tiring Harrell?

I'm far from convinced. I rate Trezz and I don't rate Zubac yet. The only way to find out otherwise is to risk crunchtime minutes on Zubac. And if he stinks up the joint, do you risk hurting his confidence with a quick hook before he loses you the game?

Rest assured, these are in Doc's calculus. Frankly, I'd be patient over the next month: We have too many other moving parts to be messing with Trezz at the moment. He could get nicked up anytime and then Zubac is gonna get force-fed more minutes than he can possibly eat.

Thoughts on "All-Defense Team" candidates/front-runners? -- since we're facing Rudy Gobert.

Kawhi is a near "lock"...
Beverley? George? Montrezl???

Who would be your early front-runners from around the league?

It's "Croatian Heritage Night" at Staples tonight...

Zu is dominating this game so far. Not good for a certain poster's agenda, but great for the Clippers' chances of winning.

Ivica's going for a 40, 20 night!

Keep going to Landry, Dammet.

Shot selection still bothers me.

Kawhi just straight-up bullied Gobert.

Mitchell's whining so hard, you'd think he just lost Rookie of the Year again.

Horrible end to the half.

Another typical third-quarter start, AND Beverley is hurt. :nonono:
