At least PG's playing well.

wtf.
The game from hell.

But we had a couple of those against Dallas.

Always a few stumbles on the way to the coronation. :wink:

paul george has been fantastic tonight. bad start, but he picked it up eventually. and his defense has been a key, key, KEY cog in the second quarter.

I don't know why anyone thought that Denver shooting in the first quarter was sustainable...lol That's just a team being really hot and now they're coming back down to earth.

I'd say it's less Denver cooling off and more the Clippers actually playing some defense.

They were hitting contested 3's. Jokic was the only one that hit open 3's in the first quarter really

These turnovers are just ridiculous. Just completely unprepared for this game.

don't think anyone reasonable would have thought that shooting was sustainable.

man, jokic is balling.

absolutely. denver would be smart to continue going to him. there's just no stopping him right now.

How in the hell was that a foul on Zu???

NippySudz · Post #52 » by **NippySudz** » Sun Sep 6, 2020 2:19 am

well, that was a rough half. We did outscore them that quarter 31-28. Lets try to make it a run in the 3rd. I like the defense picking up. Leonard has to pick up his slack though if we want to win.

Good thing about this game to me, PG played well and Kawhi didn't in the first half. And if there's a player I don't have any worry about getting it going, it's Kawhi. Just need to come out strong in the 3rd. We won that second quarter

We limit the turnovers, we win the game. Its really that simple.

Stopped the bleeding, won the 2nd quarter. 16 points is doable.

Just because the ball was going in didn't mean Zu wasn't doing a helluva job on Joker. Chesting up, didn't foul. The ball kept trickling in. At some point it starts trickling out.

Terrible start to the half.

Denver came out with a wth, we're playing with the house's money attitude. Everything went in. It happens. Let's see if we can steal this one back.
