AR should be returning soon (as well as Rui) as the MRIs came back negative but it will be later mid March perhaps.

Man, if we can win a few tough games like tonight despite that IL (Luka included) this coaching staff deserves some serious praise.

I’d love to trash a healthy Blippers tonight with two of our key starters missing.

^^^ yes it will be great I do think though we should take it easy this week, and then go strong when we get the two starters back. Or else, we run this current crew into the ground causing possibly more injury.

I say let lebron and doncic try to get us off to a good start tonite first half and then let them sit out second half, if we lose that's fine.

Sit out lebron new Orleans game. Give doncic first half again.

Hopefully by new york game on Thursday in New York we'll have AR back.


I don't think Rui will be back in time for Celtics on Saturday.

Lakers been really coming out strong in the first quarters lately, which puts the other teams back-on-their heels and they end up keeping the lead and winning. The last Clippers game, the Clips had a big lead, which the Lakers closed to "1" at the end of the first and them proceeded to pass them and pretty much maintained the lead to the end.

I used to worry about Kawhi, as he used to kill us and still does pretty good, but so many times in the last game, he would pass to someone else, which really helped tha Lakers win...!

Update, we have to win tonite.

Opportunity to take bona fide 2 SEED.... first time since I don't know..

Even if it may only be temporary, at least we should go for it.

Ben Simmons is rubbing off onto him.

Oops. An exact mirror image of Friday nite.


Hopefully it won't continue to be a mirror image.

Luka is amazing at being useful in other ways other than making shots

We should be up much more after the Clips didn't score for the last 7+minutes of the 2nd Q.

Still like our chances. Even without AR and Rui, we're a much better team than they are but they scrap and play hard on every play, and they always have a chance.

Ouch. Norman Powell out with a hamstring strain. That's going to be for the remainder of the season possibly. Sorry to hear...

Nobody has a better menacing offense than we do :rock:

I realize how much stagnant our offense was at times with AD in there. He got his points but seemed like it didn't really feel like he put the game in his hands like lebron and Luka do.
It's like sometimes it felt forced for us to try to feed AD to get his points.
Now the offense feels more free flowing and organic and less predictable.
