What I'm seeing is they trust each other. No coach can make you trust each other.

I credit Russ. I don't care about his numbers. He is our Pete Rose. Phillies fans know what I'm sayin'. We were close but so far away until Pete was signed.

Trezz was saying that 3 years ago and got trashed for it. Pat Bev too. Lawrence Frank said that this summer--no doubt on orders from Ballmer.

Winning is a HABIT. Look at the Dubs.

Where would the Clippers be without Amir Coffey?

westbrook and harden are certainly not ideal partners, but lue has done a good job both separating the bulk of their minutes from each other, as well as finding ways to build a decent bit of cohesion between the two.

Why Theis keeps sticking to Cp3 on defense? Warriors living through offensive rebounds right now. There is a lot of opportunity for him to recover but he keeps defending Cp3? WTF!

Did you hear the roar when CP3 hit the 3 to close the 3rdQ?

Too many Clipper fans sell their season ticket seats to those megarich white boyz from SF who have business to do here in LA anyway. $1000 a ticket? So what? Write it off on my taxes. Take my LA clients to a game and get to see my GSWs too.

Ballmer says gonna try to fix that at The Igloo or whatever he's gonna call it.

Disappointing but not surprising. Hopefully the TO helps.

Somebody please put a body on this Jack Harlow guy, tired of seeing him getting offensive rebs.

GSW second team giving their ALL with Draymond's suspension putting beaucoup PT minutes up for grabs.

this pod kid looks like the kid who reminds the teacher they forgot to assign homework and he practically dominated the game for like 5 straight minutes

Kawhi sticking to Curry like glue. Been awhile since we’ve seen that.

Big rebound by Leonard and clutch free throws.

This team is much stronger mentally. I feel past teams would've melted down and blown those leads.

Also is 6 in a row tied for our longest streak in the 213 era?

Him and Jaquez will be the steal of 2023 draft. Warriors need to start him over Klay even if Dray somehow returns in the future.

We closed it out well. It would have been nice to keep the lead earlier, but Klay was feeling it and can still be an almost impossible cover sometimes. We got stops at the end though.

James the kind of pickup teammate that will nail you flush in the face when you run through the paint and aren’t paying attention when he zips the ball to you.

On The Six 

Post#40 » by Wammy Giveaway » Fri Dec 15, 2023 6:08 am

December has 13 games. They've won six, so seven more to go. They must get a perfect December to prove their seriousness.

No ejections from Clippers side, still. They really know how to regain composure the instant they get a technical or flagrant. The Good Samaritan Spurs ideology rides on strong.

But here's the wild part: did you know that ever since the Leonard-George duo began, Clippers have not drawn an ejection on their opponents? No, really: every game has at least a technical foul or flagrant foul, no ejections. Might be due to wanting to defeat their opponent at full strength, not just as a preference but as a loss-preventative measure; we know how they have a history of not taking lesser teams seriously. Here's hoping they can draw an ejection soon. Would have loved to see a Chris Paul ejection after his flagrant foul penalty one on Theis.
