Going to be tough

 

[wizenheimer]

Going to be tough

may come down to Kawhi vs Toumani

 

[TYDame]

Over Under Lopez 5 three pointers tonight?

Clingan?

 

[HailBlazers]

may come down to Kawhi vs Toumani

or Niederhauser vs Hansen

 

[SharpeScooterShooter]

Very important game to win. This one game could tell us alot about our team. We have played down to opponents and played up to contenders. This team is just like us, fighting for a longer life. Will we step up or have another let down? This will be a test of will more than anything else.

 

[Chris Craig]

or Niederhauser vs Hansen

Niederhauser is out

 

[Quatro44]

No good Clipper

 

[THE HCP]

South central gas ain’t no joke!

 

[riverman]

Must win game! Go Good Guys!

 

[crandc]

Hate 8 PM start. I will be out cold before halftime.

 

[BBert]

Niederhauser is out

So you're saying we have a chance.

 

[TYDame]

This is a game that your star need to shine and will his team to victory. Show us what you got Deni

 

[AldoTrapani]

I think you consider selling high on Deni this summer

 

[SharpeScooterShooter]

I think you consider selling high on Deni this summer

I might actually agree with you on this. I think we have seen his best. I think the league is catching on to his frt train style of ball and he is going to be getting alot of offensive fouls over the next year. I think he is a 3rd or fourth option on a championship team. Not 1st or 2nd.
As good as he is, im not a big fan of his style of game.
I might give it next year though to see how the team gels. But he cant be our number one or two option.

 

[blazerkor]

That was an animated conversation between Dundon and Cronin.

I think he has upside still but that contract is going to be hard to get done before we risk him walking in free agency.

I could definitely see us moving him this off season.

Edit: If we can get that contract reworked and a long term extension negotiated then I'd love for him to stay but he probably has a lot of value, especially to a team with the cap flexibility to work that extension with him.

 

[TYDame]

Knew it, Lopez the Blazer killer.

yup this is my thinking. He’s a nice little player we hit on but I think we saw the best from him. Depending on what we can get for him. I highly consider it

 

[Sheldon Shape]

Let's go, Scoot!

 

[Irish Trader]

Nice to see us get off to a good start in the first quarter. Need to tighten up the defense

 

[Chris Craig]

Deni playing volleyball!

 

[HailBlazers]

Deni's a beast. You guys crazy.

 

[Irish Trader]

Guys are amped tonight good to see need to sustain

 

[Ripcity4life77]

This team looks like it has a fire in them that I have not seen in a long time and it's nice to see and IF they want to make the playoffs this is what they will need anything less might as well start planning your vacation -- period

 

[Cugel]

Deni has had a good half so far

 

[kjironman1]

So the Clippers want the pick.

 

[HailBlazers]

Deni has had a good half so far

15 pts 9 rbs 5 ast

 

[TYDame]
