Kawhi was given the key shot. Not sure who should really be taking it. I don't think the Clippers know.

Kawhi is not Kobe, let alone Jordan. It's not his thing. Not Giannis. Not LeBron.


Good game. We do not suck total donkey dckk.

MR MODERATOR: OK I'm out. Give the board back to the trolls and vultures.

Harden was the guy to go to. He got Jokic on him after all the scramble and there was 9 seconds left, that's who you go to, PG didn't think well.

gg wcyd

team looked infinitely better than the last few games. small things and big things coming together.

zu was great around the rim. paul george started being himself again. harden looks pretty solid. mann is a legit kind of glue guy, dude was a factor in so many small yet important moments for us throughout the entire game.

just need kawhi to get back to his normal self and all will be well.

Losses like this I can accept if only it wasn't 0-6. First time I've laughed at a loss of our own. That wedge was hilarious

Hard fought loss at least though, and actually looked like a competent team, baby steps I guess?

Much better showing for us tonight. Maybe they can use it as starting point. Hate losing so much though

On a serious note has PG ever hit a end of the game clutch 3 for us?

He just not have it defensively. There was that possession Reggie just past him to the layup even without effort like crossover or hesi move. Dude just never got the defensive improvement for years. I think we are missing the chance on selling him high.

yeah we did but that didn't work out too well either


We have the slowest "double team" in the history of basketball. I swear we don't start until Jokic gets within 2 feet of the rim.

They are starting to get a feel for the game. It’s all about communicating. Denver is going to be rough, we have to hit shots to beat them, still missing too many. Not sure what option for backup center comes down the pipe. Zubac eventually crumbled under Jokic. That’s a definite weakness on this team. But, I saw glimpses of what other teams are going to eventually face. This will be a dangerous playoff team when the game slows and we can gameplan the matchups. The holes right now are fixable.

Doubt it. The fact we can never work for a good shot off a pick with James Harden is beyond me. PG is a terrible point guard and Kawhi doesnt know what to do with the ball at the end of the game. One on one off balance 3s by PG is never gonna win.

I feel like Jokic gets away with offensive fouls quite a bit- you are supposed to be allowed to just back a guy down- you are supposed to be permitted to hold your position, but he just dislodges the defender over and over.
