OFFICIAL LOS ANGELES CLIPPERS 2024-2025 SEASON THREAD

^^^ A lot of fans must value 2nd round picks a lot more than I do.

They’re relatively easy to come by as team assets go and, when you have them, they rarely turn into a regular rotation player.

I’ll take Rondo now over the small chance of drafting another T-Mann down the line.

its easily forgotten with our owner that he can buy a 2nd round pick if needed lol

I hope they don't value 2nd round picks over keeping/helping kawhi.

Kawhi is a different guy, I really don't think he would leave under any circumstances...but you have to show that you're all in. Even though it may be his fault that we are so asset strapped.

I barely care about trading first round picks. You know I don’t give a duck about trading 2nd rounders.

Lou is a great guy but he had worn iut his welcome. At this stage of his career, he was hurting the team more than helping it. Lukenow has a chance to really take over as the leas playmaker with the 2nd unit now. Let’s see how he handles that. And anything that gives Mann more minutes is A-OK with me. Rondo should absolutely start over reggie and Mann should take the remaining reggie minutes. I don’t want to see reggie play unless 2 of Mann/Bev/Rondo are out

Sir Reginald of House Jackson brought it home.

 

[sssstan]

nice short handed victory tonight and sir reginald was definitely cooking tonight

back to having a pretty good streak of wins before we have sixers and bucks coming up

 

[Nipsey3000]

Lemon pepper Reggie showed up tonight

 

[Nipsey3000]

I really think the bench is capable of producing 18 points more by committee. Maybe it will be Reggie tonight, tomorrow it's Mann, next day Kennard...etc etc

Or a combo of everybody...

Maybe they don't have to produce as much of the defense and offensive efficiency is improved.

 

[lawdog1]

^^^ Right. If we improve defensively, we don’t need everyone on the bench to be great every night. Just need one or two guys to make enough shots from game to game.

 

[HIM]

Team has been playing lights out since that rough stretch late feb/early march. #1 net rating in the last 5. Defense has picked up.

 

[lawdog1]

Excited for the Philly and Milly games coming up. Good tests for the team.

 

[commonsense23]

Great turnaround from the squad since the BIG 22 point come back from the 2nd unit. That was the game that galvanize this team and are now showing more chemistry and consistency. Bring in Rondo for the final push and into the Playoffs will be great!

 

[HIM]

I need all you lurkers to post in here. And, for the love of god, someone find mjshoefanatic

[niceshoes247]

I’m nervous

 

[lawdog1]

I’m nervous

Don’t be. Long as BronBron and AD are healthy for the playoffs, y’all got this...until the Nets in the Finals.

 

[niceshoes247]

Nah, I saw kawhi the other night.
Dude looks like he’s going for a layup and just dunks it every time with his thic @55

 

[lawdog1]

Shouts to Big Zu. Young man has been playing really well lately. Misses some bunnies he shouldn’t, but that’s my only complaint

 

[HIM]

Dieng got waived. Wouldn’t mind signing him, assuming we’re out of the Drummond/LMA sweepstakes

 

[sssstan]

chances we see rondo tonight? also didn't occur to me that the rondo/zubac combo might be pretty good considering they had a short stint together with the lakers

Read earlier that Rondo is dealing with an injury, so we might not see him right away

I’m hoping that report was wrong.

 

[sssstan]

that pass by mann just now, gotta say im heavily impressed by his play tonight

 

[lawdog1]

T. Mann. Show.
