Id also say Craig also for his effort just all game. (not the 4th)

Crowder could be our Robert Horry.

The DA block though won us the game.

And the MAGIC win against the Clips! Nice one

DA with the two biggest plays of the game:

1. Put back on Book drive
2. Walling up Trae

But he had two elite shot contests in the mid-4th. Loved those.

wow magic won??

Teams know 99% that Booker is going to drive for a mid range shot, needs some surprise factor.

do you think CP3 and Book are sandbagging on purpose to teach the rest of the team to be clutch? really doesn't seem like Paul to let himself caught in a trap like that.

Eddie Johnson: "you can't win pretty all the time"

and I am happy they are winning even if ugly, but when was the last pretty win?

it's been 2 lately

5 so far. Cant complain

Still .."where for art thou Devin?"

Whether tis nobler in the mind to take shots against a sea of defenders or by passing the ball, defeat them.

touché ...still he's hardly been "As you like it" ..late, lately won't you confess?

I seriously doubt it. They are not perfect. They will struggle sometimes. Good thing is that now we have a team good enough to overcome those type of games from them.

I don't think they were that terrible by the way.

Is this a serious question?

Often times the other guys rarely get involved. A game or two ago it was a key Bridges rebound and an Ayton block that won it for us. This time an Ayton put back...and a block...along with a Crowder 3 (though nice assist from Paul)....then Bridges clutch of course.

Saric easily player of the game.

Monty and Paul’s plan to target Trae was compromised by Trae’s foul trouble.

I think that was partly Booker's fault too, he crowded too close and brought his defender, but yeah Chris should have moved it faster

TouchPassDario · Post #197 » by **TouchPassDario** » Wed Mar 31, 2021 4:23 am

Booker made a nice play to create the opening for DA’s follow. Kind of a shot-assist.

What’s wrong with the Clippers, eh??

2nd in the NBA so we can scrap as good as anyone.

iNo disrespecting Eddie! He's a fair analyst. <3

I like him too, but he is a company guy first and makes lots of excuses for flat performances

Eddie has a random old guy former player explanation for everything. Beginning of the home stand jitters was a new one.
