reality check coach is really the problem like dig hole by puting the incosinstent playerr in the second quarter to dig on hole then catching when there no time even is bring kawahi leonrad enough time whne they are down only
lead to 7 seven not bring him take advantage because he think his favarorate brike player score only plyare save his life that will never work if you dont have consistentent outside shonting look the okc example player
jordan only score 2 point
when opponet score three point that not make sence that will never work .
Spurs are definitely a better team but the clippers are definitely feeling the the affects of the march schedule.
The facts need to play kobe more min he brings a energy that are team needs
Dime, you my guy but you took the words right out of my mouth… you actually thought the clips were better than the Spurs?? How bro?? Even after the trade the spurs are just infinitely better. Clips with Zu and harden hard problems being consistent from 3 point land. This team lacks consistent shooting. Jones jr, Dunn, miller, they not gone cut it in the playoffs. I had my concerns about garland but wanted to give him atleast a 10 game sample… he’s good but I question if he can change gears in the playoffs. Dude is so small those guards from the spurs just bullied him last night. Yall better wake up the spurs are legit.
I viewed the Spurs as a slightly above average team that was significantly propped up by Wemby. We’ll see what happens in the Playoffs but rn it definitely looks like I underestimated the shit out of the rest of their guys and coaching staff.
Again why did the Clippers not get another 7 ft rebounder when the young boy went out for the season. They should of got Dwight Howard or somebody like that ! Look atat certain teams they always have 3 play able 7fts . And i agree with u kobe sanders already showed he can play . But dont get in when it matters . Your rite we dont shoot good enough. only kawhi . And or defense went south on us for some reason . And that small ball sucks .
Spurs dont get respect cause they beat every prediction for by a mile most people had them lucky to be a play in team and now theyre gonna win 60 games
Castle is better than Garland NOW
Best players on both teams:
1.) Wemby
2.) Kawhi
3.) Fox/Castle
4.) rest of Spurs 4-9 of rotation
5.) Remaining Clippers squad
Ty lue has slowly taken the fight away from this team by giving up on games that weren’t that out of reach sometimes as early as the 3rd quarter
The double teams on Kawhi is causing Brook to shoot the ball way too much , we need other guys to hit shots
This game was so bad, I’m not too fond of D G. I think he’s too small. I feel like he dribbles too much and a lot of CAVS fans were happy that he was gone because they said he was a turnover machine.
I feel like we have a coaching issue T. Lue does not know how to adjust well, his rotations are trash and he keeps doing these rotation where there’s no shooters in and they continue to dig us a hole and our stars have to climb out of that hole. There is a point where we were down by seven that would’ve been the perfect time for him to bring Kawhi back in, but instead he let the lead grow larger and larger. It should not take the swell to chance Kobe’s name in order for him to want to put him in. Jordan Miller is not better than Kobe Sanders in my opinion, batum is not doing anything. yet he continues to get playing time. Also they were triple teaming Kawhi and the coach did not make any adjustments to try to get him open. There was no screening and none of the guys were getting open. I was watching the Spurs coach and he was coming up with every single scheme that he can I think the enthusiasm, the fight the Will starts at the top. Sadly, our coach shows none of that
2 games already that Darland got exposed by physicality
No, you’re totally wrong about this dime. The only problem I see a high level is Darius Garland. He’s a clear weakness in the rotation. We have guards on a team that can guard. and honestly, I don’t know how you believe in a style of play If you didn’t believe in the hardens, it’s the same thing. Also, I wanna see Kawhi level up this playoffs since this is his best season. I wanna see if there’s like another version of playoff Kawai.
Ya correct reason why harden was playing slow and as scorer because most of the team is below average
Ben Mathurin and Kawhi should NEVER be on the court at the same time……..BM doesn't understand the order of operation to win…..can he score YES, but I saw him look off Kawhi twice to take a shot that he missed……..
Why do u always say a team is better than us.. Why does that matter…. We lost to plenty of teams that we were better than…. We don't play well when we need to .. And it wasn't because they that much better than us
Clippers need to prepare to making Garland a 6 man if clippers get the 5th pick get Acuff and trade for Giannis
U keep saying it's about shot creators.. But we just don't have dolib basketball players …no matter who you are..as a basketball player u should have the fundamentals..none of our bench players have any fundamentals and basketball IQ.. Maybe miller
Another issue no one is talking about is that we are a really small team .. literally every position we are smaller than the opponents
Dime.. we dont have a chance to beat them number 1 because our young Center is not playing. We cant beat any team with size without Yanic. How do expect to rebound without size? Batum,JC, and Lopez are not great rebounders. You cant judge this team without Yanic.
Personally, I always liked the Spurs as an organization. They’ve always constructed teams the right way.
We got to be honest, the Spurs players that were able to score on Kawhi all are his height, young and athletic. Castle, Harper, Johnson, and Vassell are all at the least 6’5” and 200 lbs. That’s a ton of players to throw at a 34 YO with teammates that couldn’t hit the side of a barn with a golf ball.
He did all he could do but imagine getting 4 young players thrown at you and having to guard said players then throw in Barnes at 6’7” 225 for shits and giggles?!?
I was there and left at half. It was over the from the jump. Low energy, and lack of rebounding. The BIGS are a huge minus for us. Started the game on a low and the ball movement wasn’t there again.
Coaching issue to me. Run your shit or go home!!!
Good shit Broski, I’m done
So we move on to the next.
Yanic is a BIG missing piece along with IJax.
Aight, I’m done. That shit was annoying. I walked my ass to the Lum Hotel, got my car and bounced!!
Garland is gonna have better shooting games .. they also needed to be humbled and learn from it
Playoffs are different .. just wait.
Garlands is not a franchise player hes backups
We needd to bench batum at end of bench hea old washed
Bennedict Mathurin is limiting our role players more Jordan Miller and kobe Sanders
They need higher percent in 3 points to make a threat when kawhi double team…
They can't win in play in if ty worst in adjustment need to exchange our coaching staff…foolish ty
