Think he’s been pretty steady considering Lou has been trying to find his shot until the last two games and Kennard is Kennard. Just stay aggressive and play his game

worst plus/minus on the team over the last 2 weeks
for the money he's being paid--put another way, the amount of sal cap he takes up--we need more production and leadership

Senior should be the core of the bench instead of riding along

Lou is a known quantity, a team that wants him isn't going to be concerned about his numbers.

The issue might be what people think he can bring back. It doesn't make a ton of sense that Lou will bring back a PG who is a better defender, can shoot and make high IQ plays. If he does, it won't be because of Lou's skills, but because of whatever assets the Clippers attach to Lou and he's just to match contracts, so his play makes no difference.

I don't know of a team with a player who is better at PG than Lou who would trade for Lou specifically for his skills. I would be interested to see some mentions, but I haven't thought of one yet.


Lou Will value is definitely in his expiring if the clippers are targeting a defensive upgrade. His value as a player might be if the team he’s traded to wants to trade him to another playoff team and are willing to take on assets the clippers don’t need

Yea, that's what I was thinking, he can have value to a lower level playoff team trying to get a 7th or 8th seed, but that kind of team wouldn't be sending a better fitting guard back for the Clippers. That team though might be willing to send a 2nd or something to another team sending out a guard to the Clippers.

On the other hand, the teams that have the types of guards the Clippers need either would want a different position back (wing or C), or are a team like OKC who keeps trying to get assets like picks. Lou playing should not have any barring on any of the teams that will be the takers, should be good :)

Nice hustle by Mann, I've been liking his minutes. Still needs to be fine tuned as a player, but he's saying "I should be in the rotation".

Clippers struggled to get back in some possessions, yes, but the 38% FG is the bigger problem. Sacramento has 48 FGA, 7 FTA and has 54 points, that's good enough defense even with the transition issues that they shouldn't be down if the offense was adequate.

Haven't felt Kawhi's presence in this on, and when I checked the box score and saw 3/10, it made sense.

Rose was a decent addition to me if it's just switching Lou for Rose, but he's not a guy I'm crying about not getting by any means.

We need a trade, but I'm glad it wasn't Rose. He solves literally none of our problems.

Leonard does this from time to time when he’s not involved early on. He sat for so long as well. A recipe for disaster when he comes in and forces it. Here’s hoping he finds the balance to start the 3rd.
