excluding PG, that's 15-51 total, 29%

So many long jumpers

[TheNewEra]

Keep up the intensity

[esqtvd]

Hartenstein-Mann-Kennard our best combo every game so far

31-17 first quarter

[LamarWho]

Loving our energy so far. I really like this Hartenstein guy, hopefully we don't bury him on the bench when Ibaka comes back.

I didn't want to post this until after I was convinced, and now I am:

This is an automatic win for the Clippers tonight. Being down 0-2 is their go-to sense of urgency. Lose three in a row, it's all over. No team in NBA history has ever come back from down 3-0 in a playoff series.

Things like this on Twitter tend to raise eyebrows:

They have kind of earned it anyway. In the 2021 NBA Playoffs, Clippers denied Mavericks, Jazz and Suns a chance at a 3-0 lead each and every time. At least that mindset has carried over to the new season.

Kennard doing the JJ thing at last!!

[LamarWho]

PG starting to get really sloppy with the ball. Dame pretty quiet so far.

[TheNewEra]

Have to calm to down some with turnovers

[TheNewEra]

Stay focused and finish this one off strong

[esqtvd]

god these guys stink

they really should break them up

Dame can't make them win

[TheNewEra]

He might foul out but that block earlier was worth it

[playaloc916]

PG's defense is magnificent. He recovers so well without fouling.

And yeah, Blazers are looking like a G-League team right now...

[LamarWho]

I was a bit worried about the 3rd quarter given our history. Boy do these Blazers put up some of the ugliest basketball I have seen in a while.

[TheNewEra]

So much time left don’t let up

[esqtvd]

anybody else enjoying the NBA more with the new foul rules?
