I thought he has been very steady for Clippers this season... the Clippers need his shooting


He tweaked his hamstring in the last game and had to come out. He would be the 6th or 7th guy off the bench no doubt.

Injured.

And for the Wolves, Taurean Prince out is a sneaky big deal.


that sucks... Luke not only can shoot, his playmaking is very underrated
Hi Clutchie, I love you... :kiss

Every player that Reggie says something positive about, I instantly dislike however I felt prior.
When will we just change the name of 25 of the 30 teams to the Washington Generals?

Please advise….

This is like Porzingis bad lol

Respectfully, this take is wrong. Batum is the best defender against Towns in the NBA. Towns dominates bigger players because of his speed.


Exactly.
They're also doubling and tripling him everytime he touches the ball near the paint. Everyone here is telling him to man up, toughen up, post up HARDER. But it's clear that he needs to play smarter, get some open shots, try to use the defensive attention to help the team better.


To be fair, he should be getting deeper position.

Clippers would just collapse on him harder. The correct move is screen action, in my opinion.

How does Towns think that is NOT a foul on him?
