Clippers (29-14) at Celtics (35-10) Game #46 1/27/24

[ozgod]

Hopefully this type of loss to a contender will make them realize they’re only 58.3% as good as they think they are

They've said to a man that they have much room to improve...

Yes but this will make them believe it…it’s easier to work on stuff when you’re getting blown out than when you are blowing out teams

[blink]

at least the 3rd string came out and played hard.  they cut into that huge lead and will make the final score less bad than the loss actually was.  we were just terrible on offense the first 3 quarters.

 This is what happens when you don't have offense outside the 3 ball.

Joe sucks.

[Silas]

Clips and Cs both shot 10/40 from 3.

Man, Scal needs to shut up about the Clippers.  He's been praising them the entire game.  We get it dude.  The Clippers are good.  We know.

I mean, what's he supposed to talk about?  They beat our ass and that's the story of the night.  The game didn't exactly provide him or Mike with anything else to discuss.

Only thing that can make this loss somewhat bearable is if both Milwaukee and Minny also lose tonight, though doubtful that'll happen.

[SparzWizard]

Clippers would feast this team alive.

Last time they didn't have Kawhi so that was why we smoked them.

[SHAQATTACK]

Queta looked good.

He really did.

I d would have had him in way early. 

Coach Joe doesn’t seem to feel when his players are letting the game slip away .  He needs to add some TUFF Love to their diva pride .

We beat them by 37 last time in their court without Porzingis. That seems a bit over the top lol

At least the Sixers lost

Praise is fine, but no need to belabor it all game.  Scal should do a better job breaking down what the C's are doing wrong, or what the Clippers are doing right.  Give insight coming from a former pro ball player.  No need to keep spewing boring crap about the other team.  Anyone can do that.

Kawhi Finals MVP...the difference maker. And being out-coached tonight as well. Also, Clippers were on a b2b and they curbstomped a team outside of the United States before flying in here to do the same thing in Boston.

Why do they get to hand-wave away an ass-whooping but we don't?  Miss me with this selective excuse-making. 

We dumpstered them, they dumpstered us, both count the same in the standings.

[SCeltic34]

Bad loss, but I'm not concerned.  Can never get too high or too low in the regular season.  The results like this don't really matter when playoff time comes.

But the C's better come back strong on Monday.  That really was an inexcusable effort.  Blake Griffin ain't walking through that door. (I think)

[celticinorlando]

That was gross.
