Post#1 » by PeteyPablo » Yesterday 7:04 pm

I took this from ESPN. Clippers are 10th place as of now in the Western Conference.

Inglewood, California; Sunday, 9 p.m. EDT

BOTTOM LINE: Western Conference foes Los Angeles and Portland will play on Sunday.

Los Angeles finished 50-32 overall and 29-23 in Western Conference games last season. The Clippers allowed opponents to score 108.2 points per game and shoot 46.1% from the field last season.

Portland finished 36-46 overall and 19-33 in Western Conference play during the 2024-25 season. The Trail Blazers gave up 113.9 points per game while committing 19.0 fouls last season.

Trails got some legit talent up and down the roster, and are playing with a nothing to lose approach I imagine (between 2nd half last season and the Chauncey stuff this week).. but this is a game that Clips are supposed to win. Keep building momentum and gelling.

It’s was almost automatic for the Clippers to start off each game slow and lethargic all of last year .

Then would turn it up in the second half.

Not sure if they can turn it up against young teams this year.

Looking forward to a competitive game and a win.

Nice win, regrouped with a good 3rd quarter and managed to hang on against a competitive Blazers.

Some sloppy play in the 4th and overall with 22 turnovers, but the team shot well at 55% while keeping the Blazers at 37%.

As expected, John Collins is such a nice piece for this team.

Next up are the Warriors, good test and would be nice to get 3 in a row.
