    I was waiting for that Darwinian moment, but damn it didn’t happen.

    When you drive to the hoop, there’s a defender that commits to you, and you have Ingram on one side of you open, and Randle on the other side, also open, PASS ONE OF THEM THE BALL. Tunnel vision, ball hog nonsense. If the Thunder would take a deal I saw proposed here or KCP, Clarkson, and Zu, I do it, they are not our future.

    Hate the play, not the playa

    (I mostly think he’s perfect in the 6th man role. Some tunnel vision is expected from scorers, but we don’t have a 2nd unit floor general.)

    Positives are still outweighing the negatives for me, but he’s not untradable

    Clarkson's been pretty bad. His value comes from his scoring and nothing less and this is this 3rd consecutive game with only 4 points scored.

    He's shooting 39% from the field and 29% from 3 point land in December.

    Eh, he’s been consistent enough this season for me to not get down on him too much for a rough patch. As I’ve said before, I don’t really enjoy watching his style of play, but we desperately need scoring punch on this team and he’s often the one bringing that.

    It's tough for us to win games without his scoring. We're used to 15 per game from him this season so these lapses are hard to take. There's not a huge margin there for us to get victories so if he underachieves we have to rely on big numbers from a guy like Kuz the other night scoring 38 in Clarkson's absence of scoring. That won't happen that often so we need JC to produce.

    JC is always posting random tweets like that. I think he likes messing with people. Often I think he’s watching some game, playing a video game, read a weird comment online, referring to a song he heard, got turned down by a woman, who the hell knows. Millennials, man.

    I'm happy the only person I know from the exchange is Clarkson.

    Running high PNR with JC and his ( sometimes) overdribbling >>>>> Ennis handling the ball +JC off the ball where he's pretty useless.

    Not sure why Luke doesn't go back to that .

    A lineup with JC , Hart and Brewer is still better than Ennis , JC and Hart

    This is the type of Clarkson that deserves to be a starter, it's not about his points it's about playing within the flow of the game and distributing at the right moments. Great game jc 33 and 7 assists!!! Also played tough defense
