With the way the defense was able to crack down on everyone, he cost them 40+ easy.

I think his 0-11 actually cost the Lakers 500 points and if he hadn't played they would have won by 400.

Read what I said. It wasn’t all on the 0-11, it was the Clippers vs V8 defense. If you don’t have shooters (they don’t,) it kills the offense.

Hornets look better without Lamelo LOL

Wiggins is balling out. He's become fun to watch now that he doesn't have the pressure of being the go to guy. Used to be infuriating when he had a no show game. Now any good game is just gravey.

Thunder beating the clippers makes me feel 1% better about our struggles with them in game 1. The part that just kills me is we beat ourselves in both losses, and we overcame our own malaise to win the other 2.

Clippers played without George and Kawhi

OKC was also missing Giddy. Plus Clippers should be deep enough without them. But yes, that is important.

OKC have once again defeated the Clippers. This time 118-110. Back to back wins for OKC 10-25 and 10-27

So Jake LaRavia (our pick until we traded it with Memphis) is actually a great pick...he's NICE

We picked him technically, but he was never really our pick. He looked terrible in SL and he just had a good game last night.

I knew that stuff. I meant why is he a great pick? Why is he nice? What makes him special.

BTW, Lauri was our pick but for the Bulls. There are many other examples

He was one of my favorites in that range of the draft

I saw him in person one game for sure and maybe two. He looked really bad at the time. He may turn out well.

he was sprinting pretty good after it happened. Put it this way I’ve seen guys look much worse than he did after spraining an ankle lol

I am still pissed Maxey fell to the **** sixers. Rosas should have taken him at 16 then traded up from 33 for Jaden.

Ayton is out for a week. He will miss the game against us. Wolves Killer Bismaack Biyombo will fill in for him.
