    True but I mean more hte fumbling of the ball that turns into a turnover or the stupid hesitation shots we do all the time. Things like that that sometimes we could get away with but agiasn't the clippers turn into Turnovers or really bad shots.

    I could probably give you a measure per cubic inch after the game. But only if Meyers were still playing.

    Oh, I completely agreed with everything but the capitalization since Clips didn't take advantage of any first half turnovers.

    I was a little on the fence as to whether a playofff series would benefit the team; now I have come to think that even if they lose four straight that it will have been a benefit. A lot of these guys need to see and feel what it takes.

    It's fucking amazing how quickly people turn on our star player. He's playing against tough defense. The clippers are literally betting that our other players can't score and doubling him every time. He has to put up some shots and they aren't falling. He can't just stop shooting and give up.

    I guess Aminu just had an epiphany: he is allowed to pass the ball on drives.

    He's misses so many bunnies but I think he's managing the game a lot better than last game.

    Exactly. It's a damn if you do damn if you don't... he shoots it and misses, he sucks... if he doesn't try then he's a quitter. There's no middle ground except making shots.
