    Yeah?

    They would have attacked Bradley as well.

    Again as I pointed out: when you're arguing over a guy who should be playing overseas and an undrafted rookie, it's Rob's issue.

    Really ridiculous.

    right. and lue's "genius" was find the mismatch (that basically had to be somewhere due to our personnel). funny thing is, morris doesn't have one of his special nights and we win anyway.

    Yeah I thought his defense was solid (actually better then a lot of lakers) except the overpaly to the baseline on Jackson

    Oh I hope the Clippers try to target Austin Reaves again....please do it next time. I think this kid has serious moxy and he won't back down from a challenge. He'll be ready next time...he played it as well as he could have and cut off baseline...it was stupid westbrook who messed up on the double

    I don’t get why he was cutting off baseline so hard. There was hardly any space there anyway.

    Jackson took him to the hole some plays earlier as well. It happens.

    This is how young players learn. It's good that he got this chance to close the game and I'm pretty sure he's going to respond by defending better next time.

    who knows, but in real time, it looked like that was the move he wanted, and reaves shut it off. it was a nice pivot and finish. again, hats off. if lue thinks that was his schemes, whatever. help could have come earlier and wiped reggie out. some smug s*** out of that dude's mouth after the game, imo.

    Yeah I think Lue is a great coach but why pick on a rookie on a 2 way deal with the post game conference. Would have been just as easy to say we were going to run and get Jackson 1v1 with one of their wings. s***ty tbh it's not like Lebron calls out all the guys who he targets including Clippers thru the years.

    Well, it worked. They won. Another loss to the Clippers even without their two best players. Not surprised they are talking trash especially given that the crowd was definitely cheering us on.

    I think because they know he's good and don't want him succeeding with us

    i can. the clips will do jack s*** again, per usual. twitter will erect a statue to lue's tiny bitter a** while polish our ring and hire another coach who's equally mediocre.

    Eh. I don’t know. They just made a good trade. Get George back and that team is in pretty good shape as the conference is fairly wide open. I don’t think they are true title contenders or anything but i definitely think they could beat us in the play in. I know guys don’t like Lue, but he’s doing a pretty good job with a mediocre team.

    i'm the only one that doesn't like lue, and it's only because he gets shoved down my throat by lakers' twitter coaches all the time for no good reason.

    they're like, 2 games better than us this year. they were doing the same as we were before PG went down, too.

    btw, the clips are 26th in offensive rating--where lue is supposed to have vogel's number.

    he's doing a mediocre job with a mediocre team, but i get to hear about him all the time. and i get to watch him talk trash on an undrafted rookie because his team got lucky and hit a couple really tough shots that were not at all the residue of good design while our similar shot rolled out.

    parade time.

    I think he's better than Vogel.

    I also think they would have made a great pairing.

    But Lakers got cheap.
