Are we even sure that's Patty Mills? Looks like Steph Curry tonight.

What a deflating loss.

That 3rd quarter was a thing of beauty.

And Lue/bench killed us.

He’s been frustrating. There’s moments when I feel like he’s turned the corner and then nights like this. Ugh.

I've been done with Lou since last season. Even at his best, he's a regular-season-only player anyway. Time to move on.

Lou has value if he's efficient, when he becomes average or below average efficiency as a scorer, then his value is no longer there

They tried to get Kawhi open for a catch and shoot coming back on the second screen, but the screen did not land, so the play was done and Reggie just had to get the ball in. Not really the clean look one would hope for

That wasn’t a very creative last play.

The opportunity was there, Lou's bad shot, Kennard missing the open one, Beverley fouling when Batum probably would have still tipped the rebound which could have given the Clippers an open shot on the scramble (Kennard did shoot and make one), and then the last play that was disrupted. They had their chances, just couldn't get it.
