KPJ is so bad. He doesn't look to pass or make plays, just dribble dribble into a bricked 3
Bro finally likes harden 😂
33:40 explain on the terms. I am a casual fan. Would definitely appreciate it.
Norm deserves respect. I was hard on him, but he’s proving me wrong yesterday. I’m a guy who’s hard on the team BUT am happy to change my mind. Mann, KPJ on the other hand have been God awful. We need Miller. I get what you’re saying about 2 way, but that can be rectified. If he dominates sign him to a real deal, move some guys
KPJ so far has been a brick layer and he dribble too much.
Zubac was my player of the game. Been 5 years and he finally plays more then 20 mins 💪💪💪
Cant believe lakers 3-0 clippers should have 2-0
Im.curuois to seee lajers defense vs clippers defense
Heck yeah brother! It's always great to see you amped up after a win.
Clipppers sre not getting blow out like last year with pandemic p due to defense
Its early but looking at the landscape of the west, the thunder are clearly the best team and the rest of the pack is very close. Right lakers look good next week it could be suns or timberwolves or mavericks etc
After game 1 of last season playoffs I stopped doubting Zu he just needs touches with Kawhi out it forces him to be aggressive. It’s early but Zu could play his way into getting most improved player this season.
As for Harden, I definitely expect him to keep putting up these type of numbers at least until all star break. Feels like he’s motivated 1) to be on the all star team one more time and 2) he saw what Luka was able to do last season and feels he could do the same if he has pretty much the same supporting cast minus kyrie.
I’m a little disappointed in Mann for not taking advantage of this time that Kawhi isn’t here to prove his value and contribute. KPJ is redundant as I expected and doesn’t play winning basketball but he’s necessary at least till we iron out rotations and trade pj and bones. Also, Van Gundy, Dunn, DJJ and Batum don’t get enough credit from the media for this great defense. Lawerence Frank also deserves some credit for making the decision to focus on adding defensive personnel rather than focus on offense.
Lastly, Norman really redeemed himself from game 1. He’s the scorer I thought he would be and once harden got him going early I knew he’d turn up. Once Harden realizes he doesn’t have to rely on hero ball and makes more efforts to get norm and Zu involved within the offense it will pay off later in the season if Kawhi comes back.
Overall, the ball movement has been great. More opportunities now with this new look roster! Games are way more exciting like this.
Love seeing the production from Zu!! Bout time, we feed him and play him more!! Defense has been great and harden is really stepping up as a leader. Like our squad having more defined roles and playing better team ball instead of just relying on star power like before. Go Clippers!! 🎉
naming my son norman after the bow legged assassin
They all looked less hesitant to shot or make a move to the basket. If Kawhi doesn't take away from that with he's back, this team will be fun to watch
Clippers fan since 1986. Great performance by Norman Powell. Congrats. "Addition by subtraction." Hopefully, there will be more scoring consistency from Coffey, Mann, & KPJ. If not, give Bones & Miller a shot to put the ball in the hoop.
KPJ has def been underwhelming and a chuck since the reg season started tbh but man, it feels like you genuinely just don’t like the guy over something non basketball related. I get it, DV is serious and shouldn’t be taken lightly but jeez, since we acquired him I don’t think there’s been a video where you haven’t brought up his past regardless of the topic. I’m sure the guy has done a lot to change his ways and atone for what he’s done to get to where he’s at now with our team, just seems kinda unfair. We all make mistakes, everyone deserves a chance. If he shows no sign of behavioral improvement that’s one thing, but the guy is just not playing good basketball and somehow his past is the topic of discussion. We just want winning Clipper basketball, no need to tear down our own to express that sentiment. Always a fan of the show bro, hell of a dub! GO CLIPS!!
Let’s go clips hope we can bring a mini win streak back home already ready to get back to the dome 🔥🔥
Even though the Nuggets scored more points in every quarter, the defensive effort is there. I am proud of the defense to start the season.
I guess you finally now fucking understand why I followed James Harden from Philly to LA and I'm still here.
But classify me anyway you want.
Here I am watching Clippers games and really loving the team.
Dime: "I was NOT a fan of Harden coming here" and said it a million times over.
Hey Dime, how you feeling now bud? Instead of calling me a fanboy or whatever how about giving me credit for realizing greatness. Lose your arrogance and this channel will blow up, everyone welcome including fans whatever. Stop thinking you know every single thing about basketball because clearly you were way way way off on Harden. Way off. Put that into your pipe and smoke it player.
$ James — GO CLIPPERS.
