If I'm Doc, I'm pounding away at the Jazz frontline here. Get some of their backup bigs in foul trouble, make Utah go small. Keep feeding Griffin and Jordan constantly.

This is depressing :(

This could have been a sensational series.

No Gobert = getting swept most likely.

Unless the Clippers pull a huge choke job. Somehow this wouldn't surprise me though with Doc coaching.

Crawford lights up every team tbh.

One of the best 6th mans of all time imo.

Sprained knee apparently, I reckon he'll be back but just not tonight.

He's been trash for years, especially in the playoffs.

Why did he suddenly decide to play Pierce lol...?

Sprain knee at this point just means they don't know until an MRI is done

favors needs to be smart he is a crucial player now for his ability to match deandres size and athlecism. they've had some exquisite defensive possessions with this lineup out there ( hill, hood, hayward,johnson,favors)

If the Jazz can somehow shock the world and steal this game on the road, and Gobert comes back in Game 2 without any limitations, the Jazz will win this series. I just don't trust Doc.

But I'm just wondering if Goberts injury is similar to Durants. When Zaza did a NOTHING EASY head smack on Durants knee.

Sprain is what it's called before the MRI.

Hoping for the best but won't know until tomorrow. This is not a series without him.

Crawford is just that offensive stop gap. He will get you buckets. From what I've seen Doc has the utmost trust in him.

It's not sudden. Doc's been forcing Pierce back into the lineup down the stretch of the season because "boo-hoo, it's his last year." It's the same reason why he punted the game in Boston a few months ago by starting Pierce to give him his big moment.

If Doc wants to coach the Celtics so badly, he shouldn't have quit on the Celtics. #FireDoc

Hope Gobert comes back healthy for Game 2.

This was the series I was looking forward to the most. It's an easy series for the Clips with Gobert out.

You really have to be an ass like that? We have been hurting with injuries the last two aeasons more than any other franchise in the NBA and now in the first possesion we lose Gobert and you got to troll us?

Sorry dude I wasn't trolling. Pretty accurate picture though..


Are you kidding? Half the Jazz fans on realgm picked the clippers to win even with Gobert. Jazz fans know exactly how much Rudy means to us. Nobody thinks we are just fine.
New York said Mitchell wasn't the guy you trade the sink for, then they traded it for Mikal, lol.

Clippers are such a mentally fragile team.

Jarret Allen isn’t winning you anything. Garland won’t show up in the playoffs. Mobley is a glorified dunk man. Mitchell has some experience but is a liability on defense. To me, the Cavs are a treadmill team.
