Now THIS is a test.

Says Morris is available. Bummer

We have been on this win streak without him.

We need a guy who can guard giannis, Davis, and Joker types. We thought Morris might be that guy but he is too slow

[_NoMas]

Hoping RoCo gets more minutes tonight. His length/ defensive instincts could be key in combating Giannis/ Lopez duo

Tipping off after 9pm Milwaukee-time on a Winter Thursday night... damn TNT's got power. Tiny body-clock advantage to LAC?

[Akklaim1]

I would absolutely be furious if I was a Bucks fan with that 9pm start lmao

[Scoundreldays]

Why is it so late?

[clipsfever]

Why is it so late?

Because its a national TV game on TNT... 2nd half of double-header after Memphis @ Cleveland

[Wammy Giveaway]

The Grizzlies-Cavaliers game featured ejections from Brooks (MEM) and Mitchell (CLE), the latter which makes it the Cav's first ejection for their season. As a result, there are now ten teams left who have not had an ejection this year. They are:

- Hawks
- Hornets
- Nuggets
- Pacers
- Clippers
- Thunder
- 76ers
- Suns
- Trailblazers
- Wizards

Clippers having zero ejections is wild. Their main guy Morris has been in better control unlike last year (he was ejected off of technical fouls and a flagrant foul). The Good Samaritan Spursian mental fortitude of Kawhi Leonard has truly rubbed off on the whole team, even Lue has been able to hold his head up high. This act of professionalism and playing for something greater might be the missing intangible piece that could carry them to a championship.

But they're not out of the woods yet. Let's see the Clippers keep their composure for the rest of the season. Remember, a single ejection by any Clipper will automatically validate their poor start. And if Paul George gets ejected, the Thunder will win the trade by default.

Now THIS is a test.

Apparently ESPN doesn’t think the game is that big a deal for us, their matchup predictor favors us 51/49.

Clippers get the calls. Or non-calls. #1 in the NBA. [Last on the list.]

absolutely killer defense there. mostly clean switches. too bad kawhi pushed off and turned it over

[ejftw]

Great time out by Lue....5 points in the first, then, all of a sudden, 4 in a single!

I swear though,.if Clips don't just let Norm iso Jingles.

[LamarWho]

I am not used to these quick starts against a qualify opponent.
