I mean, Kennard, George, Reggie and Kawhi are literally 6/31. They were 3/20 earlier.

Gordon was 5/6 during that point, Murray is shooting 70%, etc.

This definitely ain't what a series would look like.

Clippers are slumping right now, there's no denying that but that's all it is.

I don't know why you'd simplify it to the Clippers "slumping". It's a lot more than just that.

- They have no answer for Jokic (they have no bigs to tire him out and no player that can match his control of the game)
- Denver has enough wing defenders to handle both PG and Kawhi
- Denver has more dynamic offensive players across the board
- Denver is younger and ascending; Clippers' best player is physically broken and their strengths (which are almost entirely on defense) can't expose Denver's weaknesses.

They've lost 4 straight and were 6/31 tonight.

They're slumping.

Unless this is what they do every night and still somehow in the playoffs right behind Dallas?

Jokic didn’t even have to wake up for this game.

Let me ask you -

Who wins in a series?

If your answer is the Nuggets, then you're inadvertently admitting it's more than just the Clippers slumping.

No, that's Denver being the better team.

To say they wouldn't have a chance in a series or that they're washed like many are implying is exaggerating.

The same washed team was still somehow #3/4 in the west a few days ago, barely lost to Indiana/76ers and beat the Celtics right about 5 games ago.

It's January...the first week of. Relax.

Is he?

Lauri is a number 1 option in Utah. Would the Bulls have given him the keys? I don't believe so, he seems like he needed to go thru this journey to become the player he is in Utah.


That boy is hoopin tho

Same can be applied to Haliburton

National broadcasters talking about small market teams always goes so bad.

Reggie: how about the kings? Light the light isn’t that their thing?

Kevin: *is silent because he knows nothing about the kings*

Reggie: well whatever it is, get used to it because they’re for real!

Kevin: we did one of their games in the bubble

They'll still need a true pg, a better offensive system, and more consistency with Kawhi & PG playing with their rest of the team
