GAME #59: LAC (32-26) @ LAL (36-21) — FRI 2/28 7 PM, ESPN 

Post#1 » by esqtvd » Fri Feb 28, 2025 5:46 am

Our game of the year so far? Certainly the most interesting, with the Clippers' likely final playoff roster [Bogi, Simmons] vs the remade Lakers with their future HOFer Luka and the still-superlative LeBron.

An away game at The Crypt. A REAL away game, not a fake one where they just shuffle up the flooring. We have our own crib now. I'm really looking forward to this. I like our team and I like our chances.

I want this one.

I want this win for obvious reasons. But also because it puts me in such a foul mood when we lose to them.

Hopefully Powell plays.

Also, we can expect Luka to break out of his shooting slump as he almost never plays poorly against the Clippers. The Clippers will also have to overcome 40+ free throw attempts by the Lakers. Not too optimistic about this one, but hope I'm wrong

Luka and James hunting the switches to get Zu.

Harden and DJJ bricking.

Rebound the freaking ball.

Coffey useless so far.

Great start just to brain fart to end the quarter.

Up 8 to down 8.

This team is not serious.

We're are old & slow all over again. No player development. Let Moussa go and never believed in Mo Bamba, Kai Jones, and Eubanks.

No energy. No intensity. Embarrassing.

We’d be down 20 if it wasn’t for Dunn.

Zu having a rough night.

Hopefully Coffey fouls out.

Clippers bench 6 points at halftime. Lakers bench 18 points at the half.

Bench has been garbage especially Coffey. This is a 20pt Lakers lead if it wasn't for Dunn. Is Kawhi still in ramp up mode or what? I swear he's playing like he just wants to chill in cruise control mode the rest of the season.

Great. Dunn with his 3rd foul.

Where would we’d be without Dunn tonight.

Dunn is a maniac. I wish Kawhi played with that effort. Dunn is the only reason we are still in this game. Bringing crazy energy. Needs to play the rest of the game if he can

5th on Dunn. Awful.

These turnovers make me want to drink.

Harden with a costly stretch. Dumb turnovers and poor shot selection.

Cant win crap with iso Harden against high level defense. he is now tanking this great effort with his hero ball garbage. And then not getting back giving up dunks.

Missed fts are you kidding me.

Remember when one of our strengths was the bench. Those were good times.

Poor Zu. They’re hunting him.

Return to Los Angeles Clippers
