I saw Dunn did two in a row off the bottom of the backboard as well

lonzo looks like a junior high kid shooting it, ball is too heavy so he has to heave it but tries to play it off like it's an effortless flick of the wrist

that hitch in lonzo's shot as he brings it up makes me gag

hahah competiive shooter

college coaches have to be some of the most committed bullshitters out there

the worst college coach thing is the "making boys into men" talk that shit straight grosses me out

there was a coach k amex commercial where he was talking that noise, a credit card commercial, no shame

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F7QqW-ZuCmU

truly despicable human

lonzo is prob the most unique player in that he has numbers that show him to be a shining young talent and then he has numbers showing him to be one of the worst shooters of all time

like, 9-7-7-1bl-1.5st...not bad
but then

.313/.228/.462
THE FUCK

when is the coack K bubble gonna finally burst

a guard shooting 46% from the FT line is extremely alarming

I like that Lonzo tried to fix his shot by...cutting his hair.

that hitch in lonzo's shot as he brings it up makes me gag

Ugh seriously I had to watch some videos of klay and Steve Nash shooting after that lonzo one just to stop feeling nauseous

Maybe that's the real downside of having a coach dad who was better than jordan

is denzel valentine any good? his stats look not awful but he's oddly sized.

He is Average Basketball Player. Every single thing about him is "average". Except the name which is pretty sweet.

Pat Bev out indefinitely after knee surgery (rumors about possibly season ending)

clips gotta go for the bottom now

or trade for a PG

theyre not gonna tank w blake/DJ/gallo in prime ages

except gallo is injured and theyre already way far behind in the west. they gotta tank and hit the lotto and rebuild for next year.

they shd trade all their dudes

i don't think that team is in a position to or has any intention of tanking

i think it's important for the clippers to be good while the lakers are still terrible & that they'll fight tooth and nail to get back into the playoffs

yup

jordan otm

i'm not encouraged http://www.tmz.com/2017/11/21/blake-griffin-parties-until-3-am-with-kendall-after-clippers-lose/?adid=hero3

i know theyre only 3.5 games back and all but there are 5 teams theyll need to pass in the process of getting the 8th seed. it just seems to me that the hoops god are sending them a message right now.

to be remotely worth watching, a team must be fun or else win many games.
the clippers are not fun and they are not winning many games.
therefore the clippers aren't remotely worth watching.
q.e.d.

they were fun in the first couple games but they're built on a v. tenuous foundation and it doesn't look like it's going to work.

trade doc rivers!

heh his value may have declined

Hella mad no Giannis tonight ...

Clippers guard Patrick Beverley will miss the rest of the season, league sources tell ESPN. His surgery required a repair of a microfracture and meniscus injury to his right knee.

yeah. and as far as the older guys go lavine is better than randle.

hes been good as heck, still kinda a weird player tho, a tweener in the age of no-tweeners

the clippers should be making a move for george hill at this very moment.

ya good call

if i were some other team id be trying to steal randle for a middling draft pick seeing as the lakers seem to not like him and theyre prob trying to clear salary for free agents

i am angry about missing a season of pat bev. he is fun.

randle is great when he's in the mood, motivation may be an issue, def could be a change of scenery guy.

I don't really understand why they seem to prefer Nance over him.

celtics cannot get the ball into the basketball ring tonight

blazers missed their first 13 shots tonight

checked at half to see cavs losing to fuckin brooklyn again, nice to see that changed by the end
