This is going to be our second big test of the season. Clippers are legit and we're going to need to lock down the paint if we want to win this one. We're going to need a big game from Dedmon.

Go Spurs!!

Good thing they on a b2b too.

Before the season started, my worst fear was Spurs finishing 2nd and Clips 3rd, so we have to play against in WCSF. Same as last year with the Thunders. Not only we have some problems with this match up, but also if Spurs can win, it will take a lot of effort and we won't be as fresh as the GSW. Hope we could finish 1st in the WC, but it's going to be difficult.

Another concern is J. Simmons.. Starting to show that inconsistency again. A little selfish at times and not very confident as he seems to be, specially going to the rim. Kyle Anderson also playing really bad, confidence level at -10.

Judging by that game I agree with this thread. Totally forgettable.....

Big shooting threes, Kawhi struggling, Nico getting minutes and scoring.

Totally bizarro game indeed. Let's put it down to being tired (and potentially not showing the Clips our cards) because there are some scary signs on defense otherwise.

Well that was ugly. Not many positives to take from it, Nico was solid and it was nice to see LMA display his range a bit.

But yeah that was ugly defense was an absolute mess.

I just finished watching this game...
I really think this game was to give everybody playing time... Laprovittola and Bertans entered the game like 15 pts down during the 2nd quarter and that it's strange (at least to me)

I like that everybody in the bench tries to show that they're eager to play, but still they need to adjust the defense.
I also liked having a Gasol or Aldridge on the key to expand the floor. Apparently they have green light to shoot the 3 or long-two if they're unmarked, if they can hit it 'consistently' it'd open space for penetrations to the paint.

I'm a little scared that the age of some guys will hinder the defense come post-season

What I do not like is that Simmons hogs the ball too much and tries to create situations out of nothing... that would be a plus but instead of giving the extra pass he forces it and either gets stripped off the ball or shoots a brick, makes me remember of an early tony parker

Kyle Anderson, didn't shoot at all on 16 minutes... even Forbes had 4 shots in 9'. on all those minutes, I watched him (Kyle) get in the paint with the ball by himself in one ocassion... unacceptable for me
