How hard is it to always have someone on Monk, seriously

Why not Mann instead of EJ?

Leonard’s shots are front of the rim flat. No legs.

This is sad losing without Sabonis

If PG played the last minute and a half with just an average IQ we wouldn't have been here

That was brutal.

To me the worst was letting Monk score 45 points. Ridiculous.

What a joke by Lue... what a joke.

We made 0 effort to double him

Lue with questionable rotations and minutes.

PG with just awful turnovers.

This is a bitter taste in the mouth one. And costly for seeding.

Only positive is Westbrook can help this team.

This lost is on Ty Belichick. Didn't foul in regulation. Poor executions at the end of both OTs.

25 turnovers to 15. And it seemed like every single turnover resulted in a Monk 3... smfh

If PG wasn't making so much I would glue him to the bench in crunch time everytime. He makes some of the dumbest turnovers.

Those two turnovers killed us. Why is Westbrook here when he is still bringing the ball up the court.

Bobbymcgee · Post #218 » by **Bobbymcgee** » Sat Feb 25, 2023 6:39 am

Why do games like this always feel like the Clippers should have won but always lose due to dumb mistakes. Ugh.

Tough loss for seeding reasons man, we have to absolutely beat the Kings next week

yeah, that pretty much went as i expected

why bother playing mann or gordon more minutes in the 4th when the two have been among your better players all season?

why bother benching powell when he got decimated all night every single time the kings backcourt so much as looked at him?

why bother playing the actual 5 and out center that worked with westbrook in houston so you could let marcus morris play 25 minutes and get his nice, shiny 1 rebound of the game?

when kawhi was like 10/12 or 10/13, it felt pretty tenuous because try as you might, it seemed like the usual suspects were doing everything they could to sabotage his efforts. i almost even said something about it at the time but i was like, nah cmon, that's too jinxy.

but i mean what can you do? crunch time and westbrook tries an ill-advised crossover right by the out of bounds line, paul george loses all cognitive function for two passes in a row, it goes on. so yeah, pretty much as i expected.

irony is that westbrook wasn't even bad. the irony in that irony is the first couple TO's of his weren't really his fault and then he ended up with 7 anyway, almost as if he was saying "i got you guys"

if you're gonna have these players on this team (westbrook included) and you want them to do establish a system that is capable of winning it all, then you need to be doing several different things than you're doing now. and i do not think ty lue is the coach for this team, based off that.
