I think i'm gonna DVR the rest of what I hope is an energetic comeback. These late start times are brutal.

The Clippers *should* cool down some, but the Celtics defense has not been good.

You can really see why this Clips team has won so many games. Heavy on the Lou/Montrezl pick and roll just works.

Makes me wish we'd roll with the Kyrie/Al pick & roll a bit more. I know, pass the ball, read & react. But some nights when the offense isn't clicking, go with the tried & true.
Offense is not the problem. The clippers are shooting 64% from the floor.  I guess we’ll find out in the first five minutes whether the team just wants to pack it in and go home.

22 points in the paint already for LA. The interior defense the past two games has let up.

The Clips bigs are just taller, stronger, and faster.

There's nothing you can do if you don't have the personnel to match up.

Their bigs are the kind that always give the C’s problems but I feel like the C’s are in neutral tonight. Hoping to out score teams has never worked for this group.

That was a mostly pathetic half of basketball.

Getting to 49 points was a small miracle, but just about everything else was crap. It’s pretty tough to give up a dozen non-fastbreak layups in a half, but Boston made it look easy. And more cold 3pt shooting. And Hayward cold (again). And Morris cold (again).

And Gallo and Williams are looking like Jordan and Pippen out there. SMH

Sure would be nice to have a center. Maybe we'll get one in the next 30 years or so

Well, Danny could get the personnel to match up, but he doesn't seem to want to.

God I hate Beverly...

I wish we would've traded Rozier and change for him at the deadline.  ;)

Is there a freakin' magnet on the Clippers' rim? They're even making layups when they're getting fouled.

Wow. That was an unusually strong move to the basket from Mook.
