Regardless if Leonard plays tonight or not I thought Simmons would sit this one out. All hands on deck for tomorrow. Interesting choice.

Wow, Nuggets fired Malone AND Calvin Booth. Panic much.

Guess we can count Nuggets out moving forward. Don't know of any team that fired a coach with 3 games left and went on to win a title.

Kawhi out. Better to have him tomorrow but let’s hope guys don’t mess around tonight.

Nuggets=cheap organization full of Jokic merchants. They let kcp (their by far best perimeter defender) to walk out for free so they don't pay a tax leaving Jokic to play with a bunch of g-league players

Murray out and injured is their biggest problem. Michael Porter Jr. never really leveled up on the defensive end either. Years into his career he's still just a shooter only and that's it.

-Pulling for Milwaukee to beat Minny. KPJ ballin'!!

If he doesn't play tomorrow, it's "here we go again"....

This team can’t be serious tonight. Pull your head out and take care of business.

Bogi needs to play more in the second half. Only 9mins in Kawai's absence is not enough

They are trying to coast this game. Might bite them is the rear

This is the type of focus and energy they needed to start the game with. Finish them off now.

KL2 · Post #12 » by **KL2** » Wed Apr 9, 2025 4:09 am

The lack of focus is stunning. Stop worrying about tomorrow if you’re not going to take care of business tonight.

Let's go!

It’s a win but not sure they should be proud of that one.

Bring this kind of effort and lack of urgency they’ll get spanked tomorrow night.

Jeannie Z on the postgame:

How wild is the West? The Clippers started the day in 5th. Memphis won so they dropped to 7th. Then we had a Minnesota loss so then they went to 6th.Then the Clippers were able to win so they went to 4th! WHAAT? This has been insane, Corey...

And now just a game behind the Lakers. Are we having fun yet? Are we allowed to have fun yet?

We will have fun if we can take down Houston and LAL blows it in DAL.

GARBAGE TIME REPORT:

We won by only 5. HOU bench was plus+13 in only 4 minutes.
OUR bench [Miller, Brown, Christie, Flowers] was minus-7 in ONE official minute.

Ass. Just sayin'. Starters played too many minutes but we couldn't afford to drop this gimme. Ty did the right thing.

Rare typo alert Tom - this game was on April 8

My first visit to Intuit tonight. What an impressive building. Lucked out on Stubhub to some 5th row half court seats. Didn't even know it included the "Red Lounge" (not sure the name), open bar and buffet.
The technology, video effects, lighting, and sound was dazzling.
The staff, to a person, were the most friendly and customer service oriented of any venue I think I've ever been to outside of perhaps the Masters Golf Tournament.
Just a killer experience.
Sad to see CP3 playing at about half his former self - I think he wound up with 9 points.

Zu didn't really have a true center opposing him so he had a 20+-20+ night.
Kawhi and Coffee sat out, but Spurs just don't have the horses right now so the game never seemed in doubt, even when Spurs got a small lead a couple times.

Huge opportunity tomorrow/Wednesday hosting Houston. Leonard should be fresh, hopefully Houston will be coasting since they've clinched 2d place in Western Conference.

3d is still within reach - would love to see the fLakers drop one or two.
