Edit - Orlando plays San Antonio, maybe they can steal one although I'm not hopeful

Clips are the ones going to New York. Early tipoff. But either way, this should be a win for them. Extra pissed after two straight losses (incl. blowout L against PG-less Pacers).

EDIT: Griffin not playing. Pierce starting.

Ah my bad. No blake and the clips are already up double digits in the second quarter. These guys play less defense than the old Allas Mavericks of a decade or so ago

Lakers getting blasted by the Pelicans, I think it's safe to take them off the threat watch

Wow, Pierce with the start. Wonder if Doc will start him in Boston, if that is meant to be a trend in his last season.

The Nets are a bad team. They will get worse once they trade Brook Lopez.

The Nets are the worst team in the NBA. Jesus

Pierce is so done. Why is he embarrassing himself out there?

The Nets are an injury away from going on 10 to 15 game losing streak. They better trade Brook Lopez and get back some picks before they have no future.

Like I said before the Lakers, Wizards etc will all start to improve later on in the season, and it's happening. Add the Pelicans, and Mavericks to that list. The only teams worst than the Nets are the Phoenix Suns, and Orlando Magic.

Suns and Magic at least some NBA talent. Nets have Lopez. I'll give them Lin that's it

Well, if they lose tonight, the streak is at 8. 10 is already in play even without another injury.

I've said it before and I'm dead serious - I'll straight up give them a 2nd for free to lubricate a prompt Lopez trade to another team, if they only take back picks and raw prospects.

Even getting Lin back doesn't fix their defensive issues. These guys have been exposed and the book is out on how to beat them.

They are like 1-9 after they made a thread mocking Celtics fans.

SMTBSI · Post #1293 » by **SMTBSI** » Wed Nov 30, 2016 2:29 am

I may have giggled.

1:42 - Brook Lopez bad pass (Raymond Felton steals)
1:36 - Joe Harris blocks Raymond Felton's layup 86 - 68
1:34 - Justin Hamilton defensive rebound 86 - 68
1:29 - Bojan Bogdanovic lost ball turnover (Raymond Felton steals) 86 - 68
1:24 - Raymond Felton bad pass (Joe Harris steals) 86 - 68
1:16 - Joe Harris lost ball turnover (Wesley Johnson steals) 86 - 68
0:56 - Austin Rivers misses layup 86 - 68

The Felton giveth, and the Felton taketh away.

Orlando hanging tough with the Spurs, would be fantastic if they could steal one

Clippers slipping.

Doc looking to flip the bird to his former team.

Kilpatrick is torching the Clippers. Nets up by 3.

Crap. This is going to be one of those nights where every game goes right except the most important one, isn't it?
