Serge Ibaka and Patrick Beverley did not join the Clippers on their two-game road trip as they remain in Los Angeles to rehab their current injuries that have cost them multiple games.

Ibaka missed the past four games with a tight lower back. Reggie Jackson joined the starting lineup with Beverley out the last five games.

The Clippers rank dead last in Pace (93.38) since the Ibaka injury with Zubac in starting lineup and were already a slow-paced team this season, ranking 24th in Pace before that stretch.

Vegas has us opening at 5.5 favorites, up to 6 points now.

I have run the various probabilities and statistics through my backdoor to the NORAD computers, and the conclusion is that we win.

Would it be realistic to expect Pat Bev and Ibaka back after the road trip?

Zu is SO comfortable out there with Kawhi and PG. Does everything right without having to think about it. Dunno what to do when Ibaka gets back.

Morris is more assertive too and PG's going to the hole! What's not to like?

This 1st quarter is pretty much telling us who's not getting traded

Not sure if Lou playing in this game means he’s not getting traded.

Kennard ran back and forth for 5 minutes and did nothing
benching Lou didn't last long lol--3 pt play to close the quarter

Kawhi played the whole 1st quarter, Marcus 11 minutes
the new rotation already needs some rethinking
great D has disappeared

I'm still amazed at how much they let a terrible defender like Mills hack at will

That was a interesting half of beauty and horror
