And PG had a crap first game back!
LOL, I'm going to go to the game on Wednesday, but I won't boo a Fresno State guy. I'm one of the few Clipp fans who wish PG all the best. Hope we wipe the floor with them tho.


-This has me pissed tho. Lawrence Frank and Lue have done it again :snoop:

Bones can score and we need scoring in the worse way possible. He's an NBA player but doesn't hit the weight room like his twin brothers Maxey and Quickley did, that's why their careers flourished upward while Bones is still trying to find a role and on the cusp of being out of the league.

No disrespect to you but you seem to have a thing for bottom feeders whose careers have already been decided

Bones is on the bench for a reason
A planet fitness membership is not the reason
You watch Maxey & Quick play you’ll hear multiple references to their foot speed
Bones is not fast at all
If Bones was more athletically gifted you could live with some of his decision making

A team in win now mode isn’t playing Brandon Boston Jr. god bless em & hopefully he pans out

The only two people that proved their worth as rotational pieces when given chances were Coffey & Hartenstein

Bones is whatever, and I get that we were a contending team the last few years, but BBJ is exactly what this team needs right now. A guy that can get his own shot and his defense has improved. You have him in two for four years and you let him go when PG walks, you trade Westbrook, and Kawhi might be done? You could've signed BBJ for cheap, 2 years/$8 million with the 2nd year being a team option. Typical Clipper developmental dungeon. Jordan Miller will blossom on another team as well. And I don't know why they're trying to sell us on Cam Christie and Trent Flowers by giving them deals.

I just can't watch Mann starting and not facing the basket let alone not shooting the ball. Coffey won't shoot 8/10 on a nightly basis but will he look for his shot against Philly tomorrow or is that a one time thing in what we saw against the Spurs last night? The way the rotation is set, the wins can come if there's some scoring from either Mann, Coffey, or Derrick Jones Jr. If not then there's losses. I just like Bones because he'll shoot -a little too much at times- and we need scoring badly. And its time for Miller to get his shot as well. But Mann and DJJ in the starting lineup is a disaster scoring wise. Mann's defense is way overrated too.

He might not have wanted to be here.
Of course he wanted to be here. He was technically out of the league once we let him go. They just had a short segment on him on Sirius XM- NBA Radio on how the Pels found a gem and he'll be sticking around. But whatever. I digress. The Clipps can't develop a soul. The same thing will happen to Jordan Miller once he leaves the Clipps. I have no ideal why they gave Cam Christie a roster spot and Flowers a two-way deal when nothing will come of it knowing Ty Lue.
