Consequence of another huge mistake, not tossing Embiid imo

Also how much better would the 3 seed and suns been? This is why regular season fuckery is so maddening.

Who would’ve known PG13 can’t get past PJ and Jones…

It’s okay guys, the Clippers have there 1st round draft picks. Oh wait…..

Harden was a turnover machine tonight with no defense who got hot from 3. Yes, you’re totally correct about the other 3 but let’s not act as if Harden was such a beacon of light. His passing was an unmitigated disaster

That Theis hasn’t played even 5 minutes yet. Of course he’s too short. But he moves and gives a shit, can hit an occasional 3. Definitely worth at least trying

Agreed on your Norm comments. Basketball is played on both ends. Pretty much the same applies to Harden. Luka is laughing his ass off that 70% of his minutes, the one guy that bothers him is sitting on the bench. What are we even doing? Yes, I get that the argument is weak given his horrendous offense tonight but you’ve pretty much answered that as well: give Russ a suitable offensive role where he can use his strengths rather than fully playing into Dallas’ cards. On top of that, it’s still a bigger positive than watching the team being punked with our wannabe-leaders watching it happen.

How is there no assistant coach getting in the refs’ face in the first half, being tossed, sending a message? God, I’m enraged, appalled, livid about this game

So Gafford or Washington (or both) would’ve both been easily available to us and could’ve helped tremendously.

We’re such an old, brittle, slow team.

They were in a much better flow and rhythm w/ clearly defined roles w/o him the last few weeks and it showed in game 1.

I always thought him and PG were redundant and if he’s out there hobbling around and forcing us to be 4 on 5 on both ends it’s a disaster.

I tend to agree with this

Disgraceful performance. I was done with this shit show 4 minutes into the 3rd quarter. In a critical playoff game for crying out loud!

Then it got worse… We got punked two games in a row – by Dallas. Outworked everywhere. Most players didn’t even show a pulse. Russ did – but was horrible on offense. Mann did – zero field goals as well. Norm did – but couldn’t defend and most of his points were meaningless. PG and Kawhi? Worst I’ve ever seen I guess. Harden? Hot shooting, garbage passing, not much playmaking, not much defense, -21. Turnovers everywhere. Ty – no counters on either end. Trash offense. And how do we look that lifeless and get outplayed on defense two games in a row? We’re way too talented on that end to look this bad.

I get that the refs were inconsistent and the first half was lopsided as hell but that’s no excuse when you’re this far away from even being competitive. FUCK OFF, Clippers, this was an insult to all fans
