The defense has been on point and the free throw shooting has gotten better in recent games. But the Clips currently rank dead last in turnovers per possession. Gotta clean that up.
is that the name of the stat? it sounds like it’s saying we’re 2nd in points allowed by other teams. meaning we’re the 2nd in letting teams score? I have to be reading this wrong since we clearly have great defense
Clippers need stops, and scores, in that order …
It’s not that flashy and beautiful basketball we are playing but we are competing every single night. We should arguably have at least one more win (Portland), but in all fairness it’s looking better than I thought.
I really don’t have any expectations, I try to enjoy every single game and try to appreciate that we have Harden running our point. Although I get frustrated every single game when we commit stupid turnovers and let opponents back in the game.
Defensively we are solid. JVG fingerprints are all over that and it looks pretty good.
I’m a fan of Jeff Van Gundy Mr. JVG king of defensive schemes per possession. Amazing to watch in real time. The players are listening to him and playing freely out there. Film sessions must be fun
In regulation, we’ve kept every team but one to 106 points or less. The only outlier was that Suns game when they scored 125. In the other loss to the Suns it was 103-103 after regulation.
I don’t know why my link doesn’t post along with the image and the text. Anyone know what I am doing wrong? I create a post, give it a subject, put in some text, switch to the image tab, upload an image, switch to the link tab and add the link. It should post everything, right?

Defense wins… well not a championship

Let’s hope they can keep it up!
Big improvements on last season
For the opponent per 100 poss vs last year
FGA 85.0 vs 91.3
Offensive rebounds 8.9 vs 11.4
So not surprised defense is looking a lot better
