I swear Exum hasn't gotten a single call from the refs...

He's getting hacked and hammered with no calls then touches guys on the other end and gets called. He gets pushed from behind and hacked on the shooting arm but gets called for an offensive foul because he was pushed into the guy in front of him.
 
Exum never goes hard to the rim, that is partly why he doesn't get calls. He just takes contact and kind of looks whiney about it instead of just using his speed to get to the rim and force some legit contact.
 
So the goober is going to be starting by what game? He is a difference maker. I'd start him at the 5 and depending on matchups he would either start or come off the bench with a mix of Favors or Kanter.
 
Hood, Favors and Gobert looked really good tonight. Hayward and Burke looked good as well and hit shots.
.
Will Evans even make the team? Should he?
.
Will Kanter lose his starting spot to Gobert by mid season? Should he?
.
All things I came away with after watching this game.

The depth of this team is exciting. Last year if a player wasn't playing well we were in trouble. This year if a guy like Burks misses the game we have actual players to back him up. If Favors is off or hurt we have Gobert and Booker now.

Did Booker ever do this **** in Washington? Had no idea he was this athletic or had these kind of on-ball skills.

I wanna say not as much. I've had him on my fantasy team a couple of times-- he has some big-rebound nights, and decent mid-range jumper distance, but I've never seen him really rack up the assists.



With that said: i didn't watch this game, so if someone could make a highlight package of Booker's point-forward play, I'd rep the **** out of you.

While I mostly agree with this, It's hard to go to the rim hard when they are hitting and grabbing your arms every time you start toward the rim. Paul grabbed his arm and held it down on that loose ball out by half court. The Offensive foul he was pushed and had his shooting arm hacked.
.
I think this is a good learning opportunity for him. He's going to have to be more physical against physical defense. If they are going to play you up like that dribble into them with your body and knock them away from you then use their momentum away from you to gain position and get to the rim.
 
Guys, guys.

Compare the Clippers starter-minutes to ours.


Holy ****, Quin Snyder.
