Powell and PG have been a disaster

The worst combination of situations you can have. Other team gets hot, your defense is also below par in that stretch in addition, and then your offense is asleep along with it. Basically the worst of the worst circumstances.

Clips up by 10 early.
Then Ty decides to sit anyone with size an run a line up of no one bigger than 6'5". Can't rebound or team defend. If they aren't scoring at will, then the line-up is useless.
Mann and Hyland are doing nothing either. Plumlee is out. PG and Russ are a combined 0-9. The options are already on the floor.

Sorry guys I jinxed it ill stop watching now. Heading to San Dimas good luck!
Also so weird seeing Tucker suck on corner 3's. I know he's old but that used to be automatic in his Houston days.

Powell in now minus-27 in only 8 minutes. That takes some doing, lol.
Plus/minus isn't everything but when you're the worst one by a factor of 2, the problem is probably YOU.

Need some size and/or energy and Diabate and Brown are glued to the bench. Try something else.

PG has been awful since the trade he wanted.
They might be the worst rebounding team in the NBA now. Zubac is pretty much worthless in this system. What they are asking him to do is not possible. He is not a switchable center.

Even with Zu out there we still need someone else with length & height battling for a board. Throw out Moussa or Kobe with him for a different look.

Powell isn't helping, but this isn't really about Powell. Clippers have scored 11 points in the 2nd. If you had another guard in there instead of Powell it wouldn't have made any significant difference to Kyrie being hot, Westbrook forcing plays and taking bad shots with the bench unit, the bench units bad defense, and then the units with the starting players coming back in not playing well. Powell is one piece in the puzzle, but a team doesn't go -30 in 8 minutes just because of one player lol

Poor Diabate. Gets playing time and has to guard Luka.
Low IQ technical fouls.

I'm always skeptical of playing G-Leaguers but Powell is now minus-32 in only 9 minutes. It's almost physically and mathematically impossible to be any worse.
You almost have to get into a time machine, go back, and suck again twice.
_______________________
ADD UPDATE: Powell is now minus-35 in 10 minutes. PG and Russ are a combined 1-11. G-Leaguer Diabate is now on the floor.

First technical foul for the Clippers this season, I think (Zubac, if you're wondering who).
The only thing I know about them is we won't be seeing ejections. Clippers are too self-conscious of their nice-guy image to get thrown out.

Is everyone who wanted Harden ready to admit they were wrong yet? This guy ruins teams like few others in sports history.

Lol Clips need to go home and regroup, this ain’t it.
Might not be able to hold the fort with Plumdog out, gonna have to make a another trade unfortunately for some size.

Wow. Cannot unjustify the hate. I don't think Ty Lue is a very smart coach. Yeah we gave up too many wings but seriously Lue's substituting is so questionable.
