It's just exhausting to watch every other team's best player outplay both our stars in every series. Thinking about how much our incompetent front office traded away to construct another treadmill team like Lob City, it's hard to swallow.

If we lose this game with Bojan and Mitch turning a ankle with Conley out. One more half to go let’s go clips

This team is ****. Absolutely pathetic to watch. No sense of urgency whatsoever.

I don't see flopping. I see tickytack fouls being called on both ends by the refs and the clippers making mental mistakes.


Naw, Royce, Mitchell, Rudy and a couple others are flopping like fish out of water whenever there's any little contact

This game turned because of two bad plays. Score was 50 - 52 and we had possession with chance to tie the game. Reggie rushes a shot and the Jazz go down and hit a bucket. Then, Morris takes a crappy shot and misses.

We had battled for so long to get back that it was I'll advised of Reggie to not value that possession. I have seen it happen for years when teams battle back. They don't value that possession to tie or take the lead and then they are down 10 again.

We need Kawhi leonard to be kawhi leonard. We need PG to be freaking servicable. PG looks like he's playing rec league basketball.

No more lift. No power when he drives to the basket. Soft finishing. Also were not really getting anything from the point guard position. Just play Mann and/or Kennard at point in the 2nd half. Who cares at this point. Need some youthful energy out there.

Don’t be negative boys. You must stay positive and say happy things even when you watch a **** half of basketball.

Why does it takes us 6+ quarters to understand our PNR coverage sucks with Zu and Boogie out there.

Mann is wasting on the bench right now. You need to be able to switch and force the ball into Gobert to beat those right now. This is ridiculous.
Plus, why would I want to go to the NBA? Duke players suck in the pros.

that's been a problem with the clippers for the ast two years. They don't know when to get Kawhi leonard the ball. Toronto begged him to be the star. Pop yelled at anyone who took away shots from kawhi. They're not doing that with Kawhi. Kawhi isn't going to push the issue himself, which is sad because he has a right to be like kobe and say give me the damn ball

For being a good defender PG should be pissed off that all these shooters are splashing 3's in his face constantly. They just don't fear him, we will get swept if he doesnt wake up.

Not calling him a good defender anymore.

PG isn't quick enough to guard 1s and 2s anymore. he should be exclusively playing 3 and some 4,and defensively he is still good for those forward spots. but because Kawhi overlaps the same position and same career trajectory, PG is pushed over to playing 2.
ehhhhh f it.
