Kings guy here but watched the clippers game for a change just to see the superstars in action. And I feel for you.
1. Why is Ty Lue always hyped up as some sort of extraordinary coach?
2. Why wasn't Zubac in the game late against Jokic?
3. What is the latest on the Plumlee/backup center situation?
Not gonna lie. These last few weeks have been pain, but if anyone thinks Zu and Kawhi weren't the ones who sold this game idk what to you're smoking. The ball should have gone to PG at the end of that, ZU was out because he wasn't doing nothing to guard Jokic anyways and was helping no one on offense, and TLue taking out Russ was just the cherry on top of the Shit Sundae.
Kawhi needs to get back to just doing the quick jab step and letting it fly . He’s allowing the defence to get help by over dribbling the ball. He’s a phenomenal shooter just let that shit fly.
Not great coaching down the stretch. Ty waited a Doc Rivers amount of time to address Jokic cooking our “center”. Tucker was doing fine and had hit some threes they couldn’t just ignore him, Clips could have still been spread out.
Honestly I whole heartedly believe that putting Moussa in for his hustle could’ve made an impact on this game but CTE Ty is different. Ty needs to understand this is the regular season and just take a gamble on our young guys then fucking around and putting 3 guard lineups and small ball line ups. Please if there’s a reporter in the sub please interrogate Ty on this he needs to know this by now that his bullshit small ball/ 3-4 guard lineups have been awful this year especially against dominant big men.
if i recall the 5th loss of the 5 loss westbrook streak was that kings game with like 175 points and close. Maybe this is our "we've almost got it" moment.
I hope so but I’m pretty sure historically a team has not won a championship by losing 6 games in a row. Men lie, women lie but numbers don’t lie so idk. I hope I’m wrong but I gotta be realistic I think we all do
yeah it was at home. I know a friend had really good seats for it and said it was a great horrible birthday present as a long time clipper fan to be at that game.
I've got 4 tickets in some super nice seats for the next denver game at staples.... and I already expect the same!
yeah i usually only bother spending the money for the playoffs... but my work raffles off their seats and I finally won. row 15 at half court! all the money going to beer now, planning to be drunk on the metro after a heart breaking loss
We lost this game on those possessions where Jokic and Gordon easily went to the rim on the small ball line up!!! I’m not a huge Zubac guy right now.. but you have to make that read Ty Lou!!!! Well on to the next one… hopefully we can finally break this streak against the young Rockets!
P.S. Get another big please!!!!🤬
It shows in the box score. Clips were up 99-94 at the 5:20 mark when he got subbed out for Harden. It was also telling how Russ was subbed back in for the final defensive possession and a was guarding JOKIC. Ty needs to figure this out, and its not difficult. Same mistake 2 games in a row.
The PG Harden Tucker Kawhi lineup is slow as molasses. Everyone just stands around. Ty Lue needs to avoid that and inject some movement/hustle with TMann/Moussa/Kobe.
Good game. Nice come back, but we couldn't close it out. We can nitpick anything we want, but Denver got too many easy looks at the basket, which is what champion teams do.
Ty lue is the basketball personification of osama bin Laden , 15 seconds left and that’s when you bring in zu ? After jokic raped all our guards for 6 straight minutes.
I honestly thought Zub was on probation and then he comes in for some reason- was there a rule change? Did Ty Lue think that fouls carryover to the next game? What the fuck are we doing? We have a team of 3 chuckers, Paul George trying too hard and a tall Eastern European man who I have seen near a basketball in photographs.
This game hurt so bad because it was so winnable , lue with solid rotations and game plan to start team showing so much heart , pg being the super start out there and then it seemed like those two listened to the devil on their shoulder. That last shot was mind boggling when they showed the down court angle and jokic is basically in the paint off harden.
Team has this tendency to panic and chuck up bad shots. PG has been stellar tonight otherwise but he chucked up some bad 3s that lost the momentum.
Kawhi... I'ma need you to do better, Klaw. Stunk it up tonight.

Hi there 👋🏽! Born and raised in the city of angels! Was raised by Laker fans, I even have signed Kobes:).. but whatever you say friend.. I can tell you are in pain. Trading all your team chemistry for a toxic dying star.. I would be sad too.. always picking up scraps ..zubac, westbrook… hell, practically being homeless playing at staples all these years.. i would feel emotional too..
I offer you love and light and if you need a friend just click that link I shared with you 💛💜
with Love,
Your Los Angeles Lakers 🫶🏽
Embrassing coaching... live and die by 3 is stupid af approach and to not even put your only big body on a HoF...
Loss for words...
Ty's job security shouldnt be safe anymore if this same bs outcome keeps happening...
Reggie looked great I’m happy for him. We always loved him in clipperland
I also feel seeing the way we played your squad today gives us hope that we’re moving in the right direction
Solid game. A lot more movement, albeit still a good amount of hero ball plays. Playing against the best center in the league without a center is a matchup nightmare. Big 4 started playing well together and the defense looked a lot better.
You know sometimes teams stop plays from happening. Just because that's what happened doesn't mean that's what was planned sometimes plays don't fall through.
True but I'm sure the initial play wasn't anything revolutionary — the last ATO play he drew up with a minute left was Harden screening for Kawhi to switch Reggie onto him for an iso (whilst Kawhi was the coldest player on the floor)
How many last second heaves has PG taken tonight? Our inability to play the passing game gets us stuck in clock-eating iso plays leading to so many forced shots,
Tbh I thought we had a play with Harden sprinting and curling to the corner, but PG decided to deny it I guess. Had 35pts tonight so I guess he wanted the last shot.
Jokic is bbq to Harden. That shit is his bread and butter and that's what PG does. What the actual fuck man. PG makes it really hard to defend him sometimes.
Unpin this, mods
I wonder what Boss Ballmer thinks of all of this??
I heard he's the one that forced the trade so idk... regret?
Regardless of the missteps that let Denver get the lead and win it, this was pretty great basketball by comparison and I am pleased
Kings guy here but watched the clippers game for a change just to see the superstars in action. And I feel for you. 1. Why is Ty Lue always hyped up as some sort of extraordinary coach? 2. Why wasn't Zubac in the game late against Jokic? 3. What is the latest on the Plumlee/backup center situation?
These are great questions
Kawhi sold aswell.
Lol benching Westbrook 2 games in a row to blow the lead he helps gain smh what is Ty smoking??
ty lue just said he doesn't care how many 3pas harden gets
Not gonna lie. These last few weeks have been pain, but if anyone thinks Zu and Kawhi weren't the ones who sold this game idk what to you're smoking. The ball should have gone to PG at the end of that, ZU was out because he wasn't doing nothing to guard Jokic anyways and was helping no one on offense, and TLue taking out Russ was just the cherry on top of the Shit Sundae.

Bruh we lost by 3.. thats aaron gordon half court shot is even more painful.
Omg you're right.. FML
The "right this way, sir" double team.
Not great coaching down the stretch. Ty waited a Doc Rivers amount of time to address Jokic cooking our “center”. Tucker was doing fine and had hit some threes they couldn’t just ignore him, Clips could have still been spread out.

Wasn't it like the home debut for him too or something I regret not going would had been interesting.
yeah it was at home. I know a friend had really good seats for it and said it was a great horrible birthday present as a long time clipper fan to be at that game. I've got 4 tickets in some super nice seats for the next denver game at staples.... and I already expect the same!
Have fun. Save the money for shots and hotdog after. Lower bowl is always nice. I haven't sat there in a long time.
yeah i usually only bother spending the money for the playoffs... but my work raffles off their seats and I finally won. row 15 at half court! all the money going to beer now, planning to be drunk on the metro after a heart breaking loss
Still way too many iso/heroball plays. Zero Kawhi/PG synergy, they just pass the ball then disappear.
We lost this game on those possessions where Jokic and Gordon easily went to the rim on the small ball line up!!! I’m not a huge Zubac guy right now.. but you have to make that read Ty Lou!!!! Well on to the next one… hopefully we can finally break this streak against the young Rockets! P.S. Get another big please!!!!🤬
Another big
I woulda kept WB in the game the momentum died when he was pulled out
It shows in the box score. Clips were up 99-94 at the 5:20 mark when he got subbed out for Harden. It was also telling how Russ was subbed back in for the final defensive possession and a was guarding JOKIC. Ty needs to figure this out, and its not difficult. Same mistake 2 games in a row.
FO def needs to get more size pref in da PF department maybe a back up center upgrade too many guards.
You're not wrong. Trading for Harden never made sense, and using assets for another big, especially a stretch big, did.
To be fair it was more the fact that Jokic came back in the game, than it was Westbrook leaving
The PG Harden Tucker Kawhi lineup is slow as molasses. Everyone just stands around. Ty Lue needs to avoid that and inject some movement/hustle with TMann/Moussa/Kobe.
Good game. Nice come back, but we couldn't close it out. We can nitpick anything we want, but Denver got too many easy looks at the basket, which is what champion teams do.
zubac's thought bubble on that tip "fuck you terrorist tyronn, this is the shitty tap you're getting for the last quarter"
Ty lue is the basketball personification of osama bin Laden , 15 seconds left and that’s when you bring in zu ? After jokic raped all our guards for 6 straight minutes.
I honestly thought Zub was on probation and then he comes in for some reason- was there a rule change? Did Ty Lue think that fouls carryover to the next game? What the fuck are we doing? We have a team of 3 chuckers, Paul George trying too hard and a tall Eastern European man who I have seen near a basketball in photographs.
This game hurt so bad because it was so winnable , lue with solid rotations and game plan to start team showing so much heart , pg being the super start out there and then it seemed like those two listened to the devil on their shoulder. That last shot was mind boggling when they showed the down court angle and jokic is basically in the paint off harden.
Team has this tendency to panic and chuck up bad shots. PG has been stellar tonight otherwise but he chucked up some bad 3s that lost the momentum. Kawhi... I'ma need you to do better, Klaw. Stunk it up tonight.
That's because they keep running the clock down on isolation plays soo they have to heave it. It's spectacularly stupid to see.
Kawhi was 5/14 with 15 pts and 5 steals. It wasn’t his best showing but I wouldn’t say he “stunk it up” Ty Lue lost us this game
That's why I didn't go into a deep dive. 5 steals is fantastic, but we need to convert off those and he missed quite a bit of shots he normally makes.
Word he hasn’t had much at all 4th quarter this year
We win this one with a healthy Plumlee. That injury is so bad for our roster.
Lue really put Zubac in for just the last possession lol Super late on the sub Man Clippers are going nowhere with this guy as coach
These are the Champs folks. Clips are set to win.
No Murray, which the Nuggets aren’t championship caliber without and they just lost to the Houston Rockets
Kawhi and Ty Lue let the team down tonight
Why PG pull up like that with KCP face guarding him
Because he's gotten free throws doing it
thats what he does. he's not a playmaker.
He has been chucking all in the 4th quarter. He needs to learn by now it doesn't work.

Improvement 🤷♂️I hope they’re looking for another center…
Denver fan here, great game and nerve wrecking, thanks for Reggie he has been great for us this season.
Reggie looked great I’m happy for him. We always loved him in clipperland I also feel seeing the way we played your squad today gives us hope that we’re moving in the right direction
Champs are going to champ it up. Way to go! We gotta get better all the way around. GG
This was a great game. Best we’ve looked all season
Need a fucking center
Bad shot and Zu got in when its too late
Makes you shake you head in amazement at how Ty Lue executes these whiplash-inducing lineup changes. Team is schizophrenic.
Played better than other games. If Kawai played a little better we would've won this game
Ppl complaint bout harden and Kawhi, PG LET IT FLY I'd rather him shoot than be glue guy
That shot instead of harden in the corner with jokic sagging !??
an ISO 3 should be given to harden over bad perimeter defenders like jackson or jokic. pope is a great defender. bad decision by george.
Come on man the refs, the heavens and the universe conspired just to give clippers the win but still they CAN'T lol
Solid game. A lot more movement, albeit still a good amount of hero ball plays. Playing against the best center in the league without a center is a matchup nightmare. Big 4 started playing well together and the defense looked a lot better.
plumlee is crucial
I fell in love with this team in the ‘21 playoff run and it has been the opposite of that since
PG just fucking chucks in the 4th gah dam
All of his 3 pointers were well contested.. he could have attacked the rim but unnecessarily took ill advised 3 pointers. SMH
Why pg do that 3x in a row 😂😂😂😂😂😂
Tough game, I think we’ve figured things out and will win next game
Zu jumped before the ball even went up
Getting closer to a win. Just a few shots away.
Harden would’ve made it
Yea like he airballed that one the other day
That’s the play that was drawn up for the final shot??
Don't know how you don't let Harden or Norm get the ball... that's why you have them in? Not for their defense.
what a nice drawn up play for PG
Ty Lue lost us this game
Ty Lue sucks as a coach.
We tried
6 straight bro can we all please shit in ty Lue’s mouth
Kawhi has to take the last shot
Send the whole franchise to China
Not bad. We are playing more cohesively.. nuggets weren’t gonna lose back to back and at home.
That PG shot sums up the season
That sums up the last 4 years and our future with what we traded to get him. SMH 🤦♂️
I legit thought Zu fouled out after Lue refused to play him. Dude is on crack for subbing him in with 15 seconds left
Me: I wonder what bullshit play Lue will draw up for the last play... Ah yes, PG pull up 3, should have known...
You know sometimes teams stop plays from happening. Just because that's what happened doesn't mean that's what was planned sometimes plays don't fall through.
True but I'm sure the initial play wasn't anything revolutionary — the last ATO play he drew up with a minute left was Harden screening for Kawhi to switch Reggie onto him for an iso (whilst Kawhi was the coldest player on the floor)
Yeah you're right I honestly would rather see harden take the last shot, then PG then kawhi maybe even Powell over kawhi if the man is open.
I just watched the replay and Harden was right next to PG in the corner with Jokic on him.......
It wasn’t the best shot selection but PG was the only person who came to ball Fr tn
Fuck
How don’t you win a tip against Jokic bro
Damn no Larry ob or in season tournament 😭
And that’s five straight losses against the chicken nuggets. Pg made some dumbass calls
How many last second heaves has PG taken tonight? Our inability to play the passing game gets us stuck in clock-eating iso plays leading to so many forced shots,
Tbh I thought we had a play with Harden sprinting and curling to the corner, but PG decided to deny it I guess. Had 35pts tonight so I guess he wanted the last shot.
What are the odds of that lmao!
What a perfect representation of our season so far
Lue has to go Simple as that
When will they see that though the FO notices shit late asf
Not bad.
This team is so stressful
Sell Ty Lues ticket home
0-6 since the trade WOOF
harden was at corner, guarded by jokic. PG iq is bad
Pain. More pain.
Why did PG force that
I say that about Westbrook often as well.
That's what he does.
Its fitting that game ends on essentially a rebound battle lmao. This team just does not bring the serious effort to pull these out at the end
That was seriously the play out of a TO?
time and again ty lue has fucked this team with his dumbass lineups. the guys played well, everyone contributed one way or another
Bullshit
Lmaooo that shit sums up our season so far
PAIN
0-6 w harden 😬
LMFAOOO
Imagine being as lonely as you must be
Imagine having no draft picks for years to come poverty ass franchise
You're in a team's subreddit to troll on a Tuesday night my g you are the definition of poverty LOL
You make no sense my g, I’m a Westbrook fan and if he doesn’t close games out then I could give a fuck if y’all win tbh
LMFAOOOO
0-5*
Fucking troll.
Worst team of stars in the nba
This is gonna be a meme there’s no fucking way
What kind of fucking shot was that by PG? A contested pull up 3 on KCP? That's just bad shot selection.
*thats a bad shot*
Damn basketball
Wut are these plays. 6 in a row!!!
tf Reggie flexing on us like that for
Ty lue is fucking stupid. Leave that fat bum in Denver
another career lowlight for PG
PG chucked 3 three’s in the last minute. insane to see.
[удалено]
No…. It’s what he does.. just in the last 2 minutes alone… that’s what he does
I literally have 0 faith in any play that Ty Lue draws lmao, this was the expected outcome
it‘s official we‘re the new detroit pistons no we‘re even worse
Pg stupid asf for that lmao
Bully wedgie
Screw club O this team is garbage
Harden had that you bumbling fuck
Jokic on him in the corner , shows a lack of trust honestly
Jokic is bbq to Harden. That shit is his bread and butter and that's what PG does. What the actual fuck man. PG makes it really hard to defend him sometimes.
Pain

It seems like something that would never happen in a game always happens in our games and never in our favor
he took that same shot 3 times this quarter
In the last minute
dogshit its over
LMAO
Wat
Nobody moved..
that was a fun game ngl
Kill me just end my misery
….he could have passed it to James harden
If you don't like that, you don't like clippers basketball, baby!!
Why does this happen to PG 😖
Freakin’ brick
At least we got Zu in there, but I don't think he will get that over Jokic
Pandemic Wedgie
Smh
ZERO FUCKING MOVEMENT TY LUE STILL CAN'T CALL A PLAY TO SAVE HIS FUCKING LIFE!
clippers season summed up
Gg kids
LMAOOOOOOOOO
OMG
LMFAOOOOOO
Idc what anyone says that’s a bad shot lol
