The Clippers really hit a soft part of the schedule at a good time. I hope they sweep the easy games to get somewhere higher in the playoff race.

Must win. Can’t lose to the Hawks in LA. Losing to them in Atlanta was bad enough.

7th or higher. I'd rather finish 9th than 8th, if you follow my thinking here.

Hawks firing Budenholzersteinenbudenstein then passing on Doncic for Trae is dumber than anything Sterling ever did.

At least Sterling turned a buck off it.

God, it's not that I like him all that much but Ryan Hollins is just so much more professional than ESL Maggette

Bad start

our Backcourt of the Future [Shai and Rome] is out there now early in the 2ndQ

a quick minus-11 in 6 minutes

hopefully they will find their feet
Trezz keeping us in it

Glad Doc is experimenting but proof you just can't throw raw rookies out there even against the worst teams

No effort on defense and Lou needs to calm down

Tobias had Trae Young on a mismatch at the lower right block. Instead of spinning toward the hoop for an easy bucket, he passes out to Avery Bradley for the brick. Commentators noted that Tobias preferred to spin over the other shoulder. He better work on that.

Both Gortat and Rome re-entered the game at the close of the second quarter. Quite out of character for Doc.

Gortat made some plays--esp saving some potential TOs, which won't show up in the box score--and Rome stuck that 3 at the end there.

cool

still not a Ryan Hollins fan but he's learned to shut up now and pick his spots

Box out and grab a f7xking rebound damn it.

This is pathetic. Giving 4 offensive boards to one of the worst teams in the league in the last 4 minutes and getting our kicked at home should be unacceptable.
