Sad, but not a frustrating loss. Mostly strong play, except for the ghost of Andrew Wiggins. After the last run of heartburn, I can live with Podz, Moody and a nice little Klay heater.
It almost feels like the offense Steve is running isn’t suitable for the personnel we have lol. Our main actions doesn’t get good looks as much as it should and stops are harder to come by these days. We just aren’t good enough anymore.
Not my takeaway - Clips played outstanding ball tonight on both ends, and we still got real close to taking this one. If Wiggs weren't trash those lineups would have been plenty to beat them.
I wasn’t talking about this game alone. It’s been the trend this whole season.... but yes I have to account in Wiggins and Klay struggling offensively so far as well
The number are decent but did you watch the 4th quarter? Couldn’t guard on the perimeter, let zubac beast him a couple times, got stripped on a key finish opportunity, and continues to look to pass when he has the ball wide open from 10-15 feet. A blind man could see his deficiencies tonight.
Yeah, they are the too small team their critics say they are when Draymond is out. I'd like to see Kerr try out ditching his "multiple ballhandlers" rule and play bigger lineups sometimes though.

Curry went 2/9 FGs in the 2nd half (2/5 3rd Q, 0/4 4th Q).
Add it to the ever growing list of games they would have won if Draymond could stop getting ejected
Nite all. Peace.
Dray unlocks Steph when he is guarded by someone like Klay.
Hopefully people realize that.

this one would sting a lot less if not for, well *gestures broadly*

Curry down in the dumps. Needs Dray to set him up.
and *that* is what we get on a last ditch offensive possession, Podz driving on Kawhi? boy I dunno
Steph shot 29% tonight. Ugh.
kwahi unfortunately, seems to eat curry
as he should......
Didn't expect the win with no Dray
But man, it sucks to suck
That's gonna be 7 road losses in a row for the Dubs
Deja vu
Seeing a lot of Loon slander despite the man having 8 points (4-7) 7 rebounds and 5 assists in 25 minutes. +2 in a game we’re down 6.

I also thought he played a lot better tonight
Valiant effort with signs of hope. Clippers really shot it well.
I was super impressed with Klay tonight at least. He was hot-hot and made the right play like 4 times in a row.
Yeah, he took a couple of off balance 2’s in Q1 that pissed me off, but settled down.
It's those 3 or 4 easy bunnies we give up throughout the game simply from the opponent having the tallest player that always hurt in the end.
We too small Ernie.
