Clippers are apparently on a long road trip and just played last night against Brooklyn, whereas the Cavs are in the midst of 3 in 4 (and 5 in 7) but at least had the night off.

Will the Clippers rest players?

If we bring energy, maybe we have a chance tonight.

Can we instead start Allen and bring Drummond off the bench?

We're just not going to beat good teams taking so few threes.

I'm pretty Cedi had the only 3 point attempt in the first half. Both Sexton and Garland had open looks from 3 and waited for the defender to recover so they could drive on them. Windler once again didn't have a single three point attempt.

You just can't beat good teams when you don't take any three point shots.

Okoro with the 2nd three point attempt of the game. Meanwhile, the Clippers adjusted their defense at half. Both Sexton and Garland drive into the trees and miss. Just like that, it's a ten point game. This is really frustrating.

Dre and Prince need to sit down smh
Neither getting done in this one

Dre is a ball stopping turnover machine. I don’t think Okoro has gotten an offensive chance so far this half.

I missed the first half, but I just caught our first 3 of the game. Geez

None of our guys run to the corner on a fast break it seems. Like that’s the easy kick out corner 3 If it’s messy by the rim

If Windler doesn't get a least one three point attempt here I'm fining people.

Finally. Three minutes into the 4th quarter.

I mean I don’t think we’re going to win anyways when George isn’t missing from 3.

You exercise poor shot selection against good teams in the 4th quarter, and you're taking the L. You try to trade 2 for 3 against good teams, all game long, and you're taking the L.

And that's Garland's 1st three, not make, but attempt. With less than 6 minutes in the game. Once again Windler has none and is probably done for the night.

I’m pretty ok if they just want to leave Drummond at a rest stop somewhere during the upcoming road trip. Buy him out. His effort just isn’t there.

Not saying windler is anywhere near as good as Duncan Robinson but you gotta at least try to see if you can get him out there and launching.

And Windler gets his first 3 point attempt, contested, down by 20, with a little more than 1 minute left.

The contrast between the Clippers make a concerted effort to get their good shooters solid 3 point attempts, and the Cavs who make zero effort to do so, couldn't be starker.

I like the job that Bickerstaff has done, but this needs to be addressed.

He's one of your best shooters and he gets no shots. It's borderline inexplicable.
