Watching the game now, and it's clear that we just started cold and just couldn't hang with the Clippers' 52% shooting.
We had only 9 TOs to their 15, had more steals, more offensive rebounds, and shot better at the line, but we were only 44% for field-goals, and didn't shoot from beyond the arc as well as LA.
I see a lot of good stuff in this game, but we're trying to integrate quite a few new faces right now, and need to give it some time to cook.
I see a lot of over-reaction in the threads, and people with expectations that exceed reality.
It takes a great deal of time and experience for this many new players to learn the system and develop a chemistry with each other ... let's give them a little breathing room!
(We also held Blake Griffin to 12 points for 32 minutes of play ... not bad at all, though we didn't seem to have an answer for Mo Williams).
