Is it just me, or does Griffin literally release the ball on his shot on the way down?

Talk about a hitch...it's an awful ugly shot.

L. Williams 0-3 from 3 tonight.  clippers 0-9 overall from 3.  That is helping.

The team doc being overly cautious and sitting Al out tonight might've been the best remedy we could've utilized to get Tatum and Baynes back up to speed offensively.

Now only if that would work for Brown, too... (Granted, I think a lot of Brown's issues offensively come from our style of play. He's clearly best in the open court on the fast break pushing the ball, which we've just seemed to shy away from the last two years.)

He does have a weird hitch in his shot, especially when he's that far out.  It's more noticeable when he's at the FT line.  It's not Fultz bad but it's ugly.  Which is why I've always said he's HIGHLY overrated and once his athleticism goes he's toast.  He's useless unless he can jump out the gym.

Clippers missing 9 free-throws is a help...

When Brad goes to the bench I hope he either sticks with Nader (can't believe that just came out of my mouth) or go with Eddie.  Semi is just not helping us.

Griffen is a premier flopper.

Lol, what a ridiculous thing to say. He’s one of the best passing big men in the league, can rebound and has a really solid low and high post game. He’s already lost a considerable step athletically, and is still basically a 20/10/4 guy.

There was no contact whatsoever on that "foul."

Man Jaylen has been terrible lately.  I hope that he can snap out of this funk soon.

There goes Jaylen again...smh.  No clue where he's going or how he's going to get there.  Jason on the other hand...
