Clipper's ball movement should look more like the Heat's

PG has to pull up on those drives if he sees the paint clogged

considering the clippers got 28+ in a couple of their last games, I would say their ball movement is improving. If you don't know, miami is playing a zone and its hard to get anything going in a zone, which causes teams to burp up 3 pointers. That's why the clips keep shooting the three. They need to break the zone.

great basketball early on
tie game

Zubac getting extra minutes here in the 1st
of course he's only playing against Olynyk

the season is just starting
and if we make a big trade it hasn't even started yet :D

I see you are getting started early lol Bam is a good threat on the perimeter with his passing and first stop for his size

Good news: Kawhi is dominating.

Bad news: Some guy named Gabe Vincent, who I've literally never heard of, is looking like a superstar against our "defense."

all the clippers need to do is keep it close. Don't let it get out of hand.

Is there a site/source to find out teams' FG% coming out of a Timeout?

I'm loving this game, its a good hard test. Miami plays a lot of zone and have one of the best defenses of the league. They'll learn a lot about themselves as a unit win or lose.

like doc says, the team that plays the hardest, usually gets the benefits of the whistle. Clippers need to be more aggressive to force the refs to call something. Right now, we're just shooting threes

I'm honestly surprised this game is close, because everyone not named Kawhi is playing horrible so far. Chucking and bricking threes, not getting rebounds, not guarding the three.

Our bench doesn’t even run plays like come on man. Careless turnovers we need a point
