Really happy the Clippers decided to run their offense through Ibaka when Kawhi was getting whatever he wanted.

Them posting Harden up is playing into our defense strengths, lol.

Just add Drummond to this team and we will be 1000x better.

Our offense is so deadly that we can look a lot worse over the course of a half and still be only down 1. Outside of the first few minutes of the game, our defense improved a lot, and we had some really good defensive possessions to close out the half.

Better effort on the defensive end from the starters to end the quarter. Now if only they could play like that for an entire game, that'd be great. Still don't like the small ball line up because we're getting killed on the board.

We’ve got alot to clean up in the 2nd half. We can run them out the gym if we had consistent stops and defense.

This switching garbage without DJ is awful and needs to stop, Steve. We got back in the game when we had a big man that could actually rotate on the floor.

How about use bigs that aren’t inexperienced or lost their athleticism?

How are we only down by 1? Feels like we're down 20... we played like trash that half.

their dumb azz's should've went after CP. They can get no offense going. Kawhi not a playmaker period. They not coming out the WC. Offense is trash.

We finally got a couple of stops on Kawhi on his last few shots, so that was good to see.

bunch of PnR to get our guards on him, than take them down low. Kick out if no easy shot. Its not going to fly in a WC. We have no idea what we doing. We have no shot blocker out there.

Well, that half was more just frustrating than anything. Very inconsistent. We battled and our 2nd unit - helped out by DJ - actually played well for once. When we focus on defense, we're capable of hanging in. We had some really good moments.

Our offense is just nuts. It felt like we were off and we scored 57 points on 54% from the field. Jeez.

GTR11 · Post #132 » by **GTR11** » Wed Feb 3, 2021 1:45 am

we playing their tempo. We need Harden to speed it up a little. Good things happen when we take them to run with us.

Good way to end the half.

It's going to be hard to win giving up so many 2nd chance points and easy baskets to an elite team. We really need to find a rebounder (or gang rebound much better) and get our defense together.

I don’t like Green starting at center. We can get away with it if guys are hitting shots. But in a game like this we need someone to rebound and defend the paint. But Nash will be sticking with his lineup.

Nash wants to match up Green with Ibaka because of Ibaka's shooting ability, and because DJ never really wants to contest jumpshooters off PNR/screens. I don't blame him but Green hasn't been good out there either.

Kyrieeee on fuego

On the bright side, DJ worked well with the 2nd unit so it wasn't all bad.

Get that outta here

Kyrie doing a little bit of everything.

Kyrie is killing it. Better defense as well.
