Clippers News and Analysis Sat, 01 Aug 2020 19:13:15 +0000 hourly 1 https://wordpress.org/?v=5.3.19 By: boltsfan21 https://213hoops.com/game-recap-lebron-lakers-beat-clippers-opening-night/#comment-1499 Sat, 01 Aug 2020 19:13:15 +0000 https://213hoops.com/?p=1590#comment-1499 Agreed, but I separated them because their situations are a little different (notice I said right after that another starter was on a minutes restriction). The distinction I was making is that Sham and Zu had COVID so they weren’t even able to work out; Bev was on a minutes restriction but isn’t totally at square one with his conditioning like the other two are.

Worth remembering that broadcasting is a skill that takes practice as these guys transition careers.

Agreed regarding Pelicans: I was a Lonzo fan pre-Lakers and am glad he’s out of there. Josh Hart is the kind of player I love, even when he was a Laker. And Brandon Ingram, who I have never been that high on, has really, really impressed me this year. Add in Zion, JJ Redick, and Jrue Holiday, and they’re a really fun team with a number of quality guys.

Plus, even though he isn’t in the rotation, it’s all love for Sindarius Thornwell.

Looking forward to the Pelicans game. I even like their ex-Lakers players.

Clips are really lucky they can overcome bad games from them because they’re so deep.

If you really want to compare them, Danny Green is probably the #3 guy on the Lakers, and him vs. Shamet, who at best is #6 on the Clips, is at least a conversation. Both are having down years, Green I’ll admit probably gets the nod as a better defender, but if you take into account age and salary, it’s not even close who you’d rather have.

It wasn’t like someone shot a spot-up three and nobody marked LeBron–he was moving, missed a shot, and he essentially needed a perfect bounce right back into his hands… and got it. Just the bounce of the ball.
