the acquisition of russ was always about his energy and making things happen.

in the past his weaknesses were ALWAYS built into his game, ie teams knew what they were getting and it's risk/reward, therefore harping on his inadequacies were pointless.

the clips have loads of scoring and they're deep. rw is giving them exactly what they wanted. it's up to the others to finish. and and this is russ's 15year besides

pg and kawhi are the leaders so they have to show up

Clips need to sign someone who dated a kardashian, maybe the curse will cancel out Brick's bad vibe

THIS and once again fans are making short sighted assumptions. The Clippers have been a disaster defensively. Disaster. That has little to do with Russ

PG and Kawhi don't wanna do any heavy lifting with the ball in their hands, that's why they signed Russ.

Russ has pretty much played under control, and he seems to be doing what the clipps are asking of him. Can't see how their losses are his fault. I don't understand some of the dislike for Russ.

He has the worse turnovers at the worst time. Always.

Weird how a team with Kahwi and PG13 can have such a bad defense.

Rough loss to the Warriors tonight to drop to 0-4 in the Russ Era.

The Clippers are now like 11-26 this season when playing teams above .500 (which the Warriors are).

Clippers and Russ started the game well, but the Warriors surged big in the third quarter to take command and never looked back.

Dubs looked good tonight, really good. Even without Wiggins and Steph. If they can find this level, they could be in the mix for another ring.

For the Clips, back to the drawing board. Lue is still experimenting with his new guys. Also, Zubac and Morris both were out with injuries tonight. Not having Zubac hurts, but Morris has been so bad recently that letting him sit is probably a good thing.

Kawhi about to ask for PG to be traded for pushing for this travesty
