Will Lue actually reward him for it, or put him in the doghouse like Bones to preserve his "never play anyone under 30" strategy? :dontknow:

You knew Joker would get going.

Hack-a-Zu next?

Nearly 5 minutes without a shot for Leonard and barely touching the ball.

We have a starting lineup problem. it just doesnt work. We get killed. We need to make some changes to our rotations. Maybe its Zubac coming off the bench with Theis starting. Its just so clunky.

Zu has become a pretty bad foul shooter.

I know he gets a lot of those calls but it’s an awful shot by Powell hoping for the call.

Feels like we’re playing like our lives depend on it and it’s still a struggle against them.

He’s not perfect but gosh I still marvel at getting Theis like we did.

PG catching fire thank goodness.

Every time I see that Jackson-Jordan connection I’m triggered.

i think theis needs to start and play 35 mins. Zubac should come off the bench and get the remaining mins. There is just a different energy, intensity with Theis.

And PG dont go in the lane with that soft a.. ****. Go up strong.

Some good minutes by Westbrook. His energy is sorely needed.

I have never seen Jokic miss so many shots in the paint, definitely not against us. Let's see if we can take advantage.

I’m so nervous. Yes, I’m a loser.

Come on Zu. He fouled you knowing you’re struggling at the ft line.

That should be game. Big Zu stuffs Jokic. Zu's played him really well tonight.

No small ball lineup from Ty Belichick down the stretch, maybe this guy has finally learned.

Good closing. Denver went away from Porter/Gordon which I think is a mistake. Good win.

FINALLY

Clipper's first to 100 points means they've automatically won. Finally get their first win vs. Nuggets after eight straight losses.

And this win puts them back in .500, meaning they're out of the lottery and back in the postseason.

Good win. Finally some encouraging stuff against this team. Would hate to face them in a series though.

Return to Los Angeles Clippers
