Game 7: Utah Jazz (4-2) @ Los Angeles Clippers (4-2) - 9:00 PM

[50CalClips]

5-2...

With the schedule and missing George, in the first 10 games, I half-expected that the Clips to end up 3-7... well, we're at least .500 in the first 10. With the best still yet to come!

The team has some meshing to do, but hey, things are looking good so far (eye on Shamet, Montrezl's D, Khemistry)

Are you serious? 3-7? Jesus dude.

The Schedule being what it was...
The West being what it is...
Missing a guy the caliber of Paul George...
Consideration of 'Load Management'...

Yeah, I "half-expected" 3-7... the pessimist half...
Lakers, Bucks, Jazz, Jazz, Raptors, Warriors, Blazers, Spurs, Hornets, Suns

5-2 with three to go...
Nov 6 - BUCKS
Nov 7 - BLAZERS
Nov 11 - RAPTORS

patterson's the reason why kawhi was bricking every shot to start? or why shamet can't throw a rock into the ocean? or why pat beverly is useless on offense? because i'm pretty sure that those were far greater factors than anything having to do with patrick patterson.

more than that, the jazz defense is super good, in case you didn't realize. would i rather see more jmike or harkless? yes. but barring the return of paul george, the starting unit is always going to struggle against a top defensive lineup if kawhi is off.

Patterson clogs the lane because he can’t and won’t shoot. He stands out there scared until it’s time for him to get pulled from the game. His defense has been weak and with Beverly and Shamet having higher priority he needs to be removed from the rotation. Don’t play him just because when the team has a glut of forwards eager to play

I feel like you're blaming him and making up things about him for literally no reason at all. I haven't seen anything you just said about him. He shoots when he's open, his defense has been solid. He's a body that helps when rebounding.

all this

Again, 3-7??

Sorry dude makes no sense. Do you forget kawhi Leonard is on the team? A top 3 player? Lol.

That's the difference between kawhi and PG.PG is Hof talent but Paul George doesn't impose his will on a team the way kawhi Leonard can. If Paul George was in this game and kawhi sat out, they probably lose.

PG can get hot and lead a rally comeback. We see him do that through his career but he's not the guy to impose his will like kawhi, Kobe, LeBron etc. Guys that always have a knack of winning games they should be losing.

I expected the clips to go 7-3 without PG. They might still do that

TBH I'm still upset we lost to the suns. That was a very winnable game..we just came out with no effort. It still kinda bothers me because we'd be 6-1, not 5-2.

He attempted one shot in 12 minutes and look at his shooting volume for the level of minutes until two games ago. Patterson has been a waste of space and for a team and his defense is be covered playing around 3 three better defenders in the starting unit.


People will wonder why Kawhi can’t get a clean look when three of the other starters are scared to shoot and we can’t produce buckets until the bench comes in

Even patpat himself he's adjusting. He says he's calling out OKC coverages in defense and it's confusing the other guys. He's trying to get over that. Source: https://youtu.be/bsEuS1fOah4

Just because a guy gives effort does mean he's the best option for the team. There are better options currently on this team.

On top of that Patterson is a damn buyout player there should be investment to make him better.
