    Too bad the Clippers can't do us another favor and beat the Jazz.

    Big time props. I know a lot of people think all of his good moves are accidents. But, he continues to find these under the radar guys. He has a real skill at that.

    I agree. The end of the bench guys brought you all the way back let someone like Baldwin or Connaughton, etc. win the game for you.

    Small props to Mr. Jake Layman for looking like an NBA player for a few minutes.

    Would also like to say.
    The last play for the shot CJ got.
    That was one of the worst passes you can throw in a catch and shoot situation.
    Pat needs to hit the shooter so he can just go up with it.
    Instead Pat threw the pass towards CJ's right ear meaning CJ couldn't get into a proper shooting motion.

    The biggest shot he's hit so far in his young career. That turnaround was sweet.

    Yeah, he played a good 3 minute stretch. Should we start Swanigan right now too?

    Pat's been struggling consistently. He'll have very short flashes but that doesn't mean he should keep his spot in the rotation. Baldwin is a better player based off his skillset and defense, and he's shown it. You could say this stretch from Baldwin is a flash in the pan but the dude has intangibles and a toolset that suggests it isn't.

    I don't think it'll happen, BUT.
    I'd straight laugh my ass off if Spurs fell to 8. Meaning Har_en & _'Antoni drew the Spurs.
    Cause I think the Spurs would eliminate them.
    Aldridge always plays well against Houston.

    They can't tank if Baldwin is winning games for them.

    Can’t wait to see him single out some fan on twitter though. Truth hurts I guess.
