Talk about a big game (for us not the Lakers). With no Dennis and LeBron, there are absolutely no excuses to lose this.

We'll see if Drummond made the right choice going to the Lakers. Zubac needs to step it up, he's looked mediocre for way too long.

Morris has a tough assignment if he's on AD.

PG on KCP? Please. This should be a breakout 30+ pt game for him on good FG %'s.

Batum +5.2
Beverley +4.6
Ibaka +4.2

Reggie +3.2
Zubac +2.0
Marcus +2.0
Pat Pat +1.2
Mann +0.1
Kennard minus-0.3

Rondo on Clippers +1.8
Cousins on Clippers minus-1.6

LAST 13 GAMES [since Rondo's first game]

Kawhi +17.8 [!]
Zubac +5.8
Reggie +4.7
Batum +4.6
Rondo +1.8
PG +1.7
Mann +0.7
Morris minus-0.6
Pat Pat minus-0.8
Cousins minus-1.6

I am jacked up for this game. Nobody hates the fLakers more than me.

Vegas believes- we are 7.5-8.5 favorites. I agree.

Losing tonight is unimaginable

Pretty good so far, but the turnovers have got to stop.

Need Mook to stay aggressive to counter AD and make it easier for Klaw and PG13

Bench please hold it down this time

Looks like Trez is already in playoff form.

Bev + Rondo = very interesting

Defense has to attack the pick and roll better off the bench. Guys coming off screens and no one picking up the shooter

I can see why they are trying to use Bev shooting but personally would like to see Rondo set up Boogie and Kennard two man game
