    Goodwin, AR and Rui out against Clips.
    Powell might be back, but Derrick Jones Jr is listed as out for Clips.

    I sorta have a bad feeling about this one, but I guess we'll see.

    We will see.

    Yeah, I'm writing this one off tonight. It's always tough to beat a team two times in a row, and--much as it pains me to say--the Clippers haven't been an easy out for us in a good long while, even if the script has started to flip. And now we have Rui, AR, and Goodwin out, which is for the best in the long run. Would be a great win for us, but I'm not getting my hopes up.

    Me too... Not expecting a dub BUT you never know. Whoever is playing not named James or Doncic can take it as an opp to make something for themselves.

    We should have used this game as a "schedules loss" instead of losing against Charlotte for no reason. We'd be #2 in the West now.

    Oh well, we'll just have to win tonight, I guess.

    The Clippers are not a serious problem for this team even when missing AR, Rui, and Goodwin.

    I hope that’s clear now and we can stop giving them the respect of talking about them like they’re a rival or something.

    The C Bags are a rival based on championships. The Nuggets are a rival based on recent history. The Clippers are nothing and have done nothing. Irrelevant until the end of time.

    Anyone else noticing no more shots of sweaty Ballz all excited and worked up on the sideline.

    kawhi played his most minutes of the season on friday and then eclipsed it tonight. it's truly pathetic how the ballmer era clips treat every lakers game like game 7 of the finals to the point where they're willing to risk further injury to their superstar who is already playing on one leg

    guarantee he misses at least the next game and then goes back to playing 30 minutes or less every night afterwards

    Wasn’t he paying reporters and media for coverage and talking them up? I guess Baldmer sunk enough money into that money pit to realize it wasn’t working.

    Flop city exists for us to mock. They have never been a threat. Our rivals are last year's champions and occasionally teams like the Spurs.

    Yep...subliminal recruiting. Doncic is a cold white boy.

    Every time I see that I always think he needs an extra large towel or a big bottle of laxative. Latter is fitting now that he has state of the art toilets.

    Clippers put a target on our backs and did everything they could to one up our organization and still failed. Love to see it.
