team letting up on the gas on D, unfortunately.

still scoring, though. guess all that force-feeding of zu to be a short-roll connector is kinda paying off. one really nice give and go with PG and then another great pass to kawhi for the easy bucket.

Pacers still shooting nearly 40% from 3 through 3 quarters. Clips were still up 20. We dial up the D more and there isn't much Indy can do. Indy over 50% from the field, 40% from 3 and 84% from the line and still down.

Anything Harden throws up is going in right now

clipperlover · Post #25 » by **clipperlover** » Tue Dec 19, 2023 2:12 am

Unreal. So, the key for this team is to get up big and then let Harden get hot.

bones and russ having way too much fun off that last harden 3 lol.

honestly tells you a lot about the chemistry of this team. the two guys who are sacrificing the most are totally buying in

and as i say that, harden and1 on the 3 lol

This is gonna be a toughie. Any of their Big 3 can be MVP.

Leonard: needs one but really doesn't. Prefers the Spursian way, will be glad with Finals MVP, the stuff that makes superstars out of role players.
George: steady performance, the most consistent.
Harden: the "savior," so to speak. May lead Clippers to first ever All-Star coach in Tyronn Lue, new longest winning streak, and first ever no. 1 seed. First real point guard since former savior Chris Paul. (And all it took was admitting they needed power, not parity)

Very possible this internal MVP competition may tear the team apart. But man, would it be cool for all three to share an MVP award, would be unprecedented.

Amazing string of wins. Not only do the Clippers have confidence but the flip side is that now other teams go in thinking they're going to lose. Zu had a great game. I think our patience and faith is paying off.

Tuned into the 4th didn't realize game was on early. We look freaking fantastic

We will be even with Nuggets or Mavs in Games Back by the end of night. We have a legit shot @ #2 in West by end of month.

Wolves have a very tough 13 game stretch coming up (8 on the road). Only 2 teams they are playing are less than 3 games above .500. They are going to get tested.

I'll take the 22 pts, 25 rbs and 5 blocks from the C position every night. When Plumlee gets back, Harden and Russ will have another weapon in the pick and roll. We should never again see a small ball line-up outside garbage time.

Oh yeah Clips comin' for all y'all...

Another well-rounded win; albeit at a high scoring allowance.. but yeah, this team is really starting to kick into high gear.

Fun to see...

Holding them to 28 and 28 in 2nd and 3rd Q for the pace of the game doesn't seem too bad though.. inflated from the first quarter and 4th quarter.

Bunch of nice games from a bunch of folks

Kawhi, Harden, and George all got well fed. Took it easy on the glass, let Zu and Theis get the most boards haha..

Insane shooting percentages

Who is this team and what have they done with the Clippers of the last few years? The games are actually fun to watch again!

Wow

I liked seeing the guys enjoy each other. Having a little fun, interacting with each other. Its tough for a team to win a chip if they dont really get along.
