OFFICIAL LOS ANGELES CLIPPERS 2024 OFFSEASON THREAD

[rfx45]

see mitchell i really like because dude just plays and doesnt complain even with his foot falling off

luka and booker just b*tches non-stop the whole game

 

[sssstan]

Reginald stepping up big time for us, he needs more help

 

[lawdog1]

Did not expect this run we’re on. Thought the Suns were about to break it open. Huge response by PG and Reggie.

 

[rfx45]

pg did lead that quick comeback with an 8 straight pts

 

[HIM]

PG playing well. Don’t mind those last two misses.

Refs have been awful thisquarter and unfortunately not in out favor. Its cost us at least a 4 point swing

decent amount of continuation plays not given to us and plenty of questionable fouls called on us as well

won't use that as an excuse since we're settling for too many jumpers instead of attacking

 

[nelson999]

Suns are kinda dope. Hope they win the chip

 

[rfx45]

appreciate the patience but woof thats a lot of clock they burnt

still doable

 

[HIM]

Great game. Can’t be mad, all things considered

 

[rfx45]

welp

on to the next one

 

[sssstan]

not mad at this loss coming off a short turnaround from the utah series

book went crazy with that trip dub on us and it still got close. guess we'll have to wait till after we drop that next one before ty makes those adjustments?

 

[ShoeGameBoss]

Forced too many threes.

 

[rfx45]

dont think they can afford another feel out game with cp3s return looming unless they know kawhis coming back for sure but being down 2-0 is their thing so who knows

 

[rfx45]

still makes no sesne why this game isnt tomorrow though, theres no game tomorrow anyways

and watch they ecf probably gon starts wed and sixer/hawks gon get that extra day of rest

shoulda been game 7 tonight, wcf tom and then ecf tues so theres a game everyday

its not like there mnf to compete with

 

[lawdog1]

Hope Morris is ok. Can’t really afford to lose anyone else from the core rotation.

 

[bapar11]

will make the right adjustments

 

[rfx45]

yah i think book got hot there and zu stayed for too long and got tired in the end

i mean book played the whole second half iirc and looked like he could have played another quarter, thats how well rested they were

 

[HIM]

Anyone going to games 3 or 4? Thinking of going to 3. Our first WCF gam, crowd should be great

 

[lamekilla]

I liked today’s game. Booker played the best game of his career and Suns only won by 6 at home. The game was very winnable. I’ve always trusted Lue’s adjustments so I know he can get it done. The CP3 puzzle piece is where it’ll get interesting

Do it. And if you see Suns-in-4-guy there, I’m going to need you to run the fade. Suns fans are out-of-pocket with that **** right now.

 

[rfx45]

i feel like there was two plays that would have swung the game, there was that one miss and transition 3 by book where reggie was fouling to prevent the fastbreak but the refs didnt call

then that last play that rondo missed and gave book the open lay-up, theres also the dumb offensive interference dunk that counted

game was actually kind of reminiscent of game 1 against utah where lue played like 10 players, im gon assume the rondo/boogie experiment might be done for the series unless mook is really hurt but i was surprised rondo out there over patbev as patbev wasnt being his usual extra

just got to closeout or quick outside double on book on those screens, i think this is where the clips get hurt without kawhi, he's that extra length that could take on those switches while book can just elevate over mann/pat/rondo

Anyone going to games 3 or 4? Thinking of going to 3. Our first WCF gam, crowd should be great

if you go, you got to start a kendall chant when books on the line, thats got to throw him off his rhythm or something

but depending on the price, i might go, i found a $115 tix on the middle but couldnt find anyone to come with me, shoulda gotten the $1k floor lvl and gone by myself knowing what i know now

 

[iheartboost]

It slipped, all good. We know what we dealing with. Been in this sitution before and we will adjust. Maybe not the next game, lol, but game 3 and 4 we will

That seems right. On the other hand, can we really go down 0-2 in 3 straight series? We gotta catch some breaks in a game 2 eventually:

with this suns team, i don’t think we can fall 2-0 especially with not knowing full details on kawhi’s knees

today gives me hope we can put up a good fight without him, but i can’t trust our whole team being consistent enough to win the series

 

[ShoeGameBoss]

I feel like we settled for way too many contested threes. I get the wide open threes, but we gotta stop forcing bad threes.
