    I love the defense of Shaq, and his overall game.

    Hate to say it, but we might have to take Sharpe and Watford out for the 2nd half

    I don't care what the other teams said about him.

    Kevin knox is a keeper.

    It takes some players longer than others.

    Watford was scoring at will, so they sat him down

    Great defense by the Clippers!

    Actually i do expect the Clippers to put the clamps down at some point and run away with the game.

    Shae & Tre combine for 39 points on 15-21 shooting and you can tell they have great chemistry together. Such fun to wath!

    I’m sorry to say it, but these guys are more fun to watch as a team than Dame/Simons/Grant.

    Actually the officiating is not bad....until Kawhi has the ball. Then there is some superstar treatment.

    Saying this for years
    That our front office has managed to find a group of guys essentially off the street who could score 70 in a half at an almost at full-strength Clippers and that drafted Shaedon Sharpe and Jabari Walker makes me feel really good about having two first-round draft picks this draft and a mid-second-rounder.

    7 rebounds in the first half for Knox. Ties the game high with Zubac.
    That’s an area where Knox can make a mark for himself.
    If he can work hard and be effective rebounding and defending, and pick his spots on offense, he can really contribute.

    Shae hit his 20 points in the first half. At this point, I would not mind him sitting.

    lol at the Clippers giving up 70 points to this Blazer team. Ty Lue might have a fit at halftime

    who was better that half...Kawhi or Trendon?
