Mind you, I haven’t seen a ton of Allen but I like what I’ve seen from him, outside of the dirty shit! Would probably still prefer Mann though

I get you love Mann but he ain’t the player you think he is lol he’s shown improvement every year though so that’s a huge positive & deserving of praise!

Surprisingly, Shap was dead on when talking about him on the 2nd pod, as was Lucas, with some of the things he said.. Can’t say the same for the other guy but that’s not surprising.. Mann had nice moments & a game for the ages, one that will go down as one of the greatest in Clippers history, but folks need to relax on the hype & expectations.. He’s a solid player, nothing more, let’s just hope he keeps improving & takes the next step folks claim he’s already at.. I don’t wanna see what Lucas talked about come to fruition.. Then come on here to read constant bullshit when he struggles.. Let’s appreciate the growth he’s made so far, lower expectations & enjoy his & this teams journey this year!

By the way, anyone else having issues with the pods lately? The past few have “skipped backwards” (hope that makes sense) midway through the pod, replaying things, resulting in episodes ending abruptly when the timer ends.. Nonetheless, fun set of pods!

For what it’s worth, Luke is also the guy I’m most excited to see (Bled a close 2nd) & Winslow will show out prove to be a STEAL signing!

I’m with the majority on the starting backcourt not being Reggie and Bledsoe. I just think they’re undersized and this will be exploited. PG, Mook, Zu, RJ the Terrence is a super well-balanced starting lineup to me. Hartenstein can dive well enough for Bledsoe to still run all that downhill material and then Luke becomes even more devastating as a sniper on kick outs. I think Serge should be load-managed therefore he shouldn’t start either. Nic will do Nic things and Boston can come in here and there to heat things up if the second unit gets stale. If Winslow can just tread water and do no harm then he’s probably playable too.

Lmao I loved shamet as a clipper but he and Allen imo compared to mann s 2-way play and upside do not equate to that contract. I’d be a little skeptical if I was a suns or bucks fan the same way I felt when Luke was extended. I get it, allen and shamet are shooters but they’re inconsistent imo and don’t have the playoff mode Mann just showed . Another reason to be greatful for Mann and the contract we got him on.
