BTW these are shots EVERY team should want that we're missing. We're wide open and getting mismatches. When the offensive plan gets bad is when it turns iso heavy.

Clippers seem to me to be one of the few teams where we should really try to play fast and in transition. They're good but they're kind of a low energy team.

So much of our offensive woes is just personnel and skill set, everyone except WeltHam knows we need non-streaky shooting in the worst way

Paolo is on my last damn nerve. He’s been terrible. Franz nearly as bad.

I'm so over WCJ and don't know how anyone thinks he's the right starter.

The Clippers should keep attacking the rim.

Carter forgot to tie his and now lost his contract.

Unfortunately Banchero isn't ready for these kind of games.. he's so unsure of what to do.

I love a breakdown on guys who just have bad luck with injuries. Like, Wendell getting poked in the eye much more often than other players. What’s the science behind that?

It's that pseudo boxed defense where they apply pressure 10 feet in when they're getting to the basket.

Not sure what's going on with both of them but we're going nowhere with them playing this way. Franz has no confidence and Paolo forgot how to shoot.

This is only year 2 for Paolo expect to be disappointed. He pretty much hasn't found his bread and butter.

I'm very confused where Paolo's head is on offense. They're giving him open middies (his favorite shot) and he's hesitating, then backing people down in the post like he's Magic Johnson at halfcourt in the 80s.

They're young and haven't played in games that mattered yet.

He can't shoot right now... and now he looks scared.
