What were the Clippers thinking when they traded Lou Williams?


PLAYOFF RONDO

(we'll see how that works out - RR struggling with the numbers this year's playoffs but a stout contributor nonetheless - 16.8 PER in 18 reg season games for LAC - and 2 biggest series to come)

Note:  with PG13 and Kawhi, addition of Kennard - Lou's shots were less needed.

Kennard - .476/.446/.839 regular season

Mann - .509/.418/.830

Not sure Lou is missed all that much.

The Futility of Ben Simmons
« Reply #19202 on: June 17, 2021, 12:22:31 PM »

I was out perfecting the art of counter riposte traps & missed tonight’s games. It looks like Ben Simmons was low impact & Tobias Harris was basically shut out. That seems incredible enough to catch the replay for, that and the amount of BS necessary to get Young 19 ft attempts.

 Big Ben was 4-14 from the FT Line

How is that possible?

Doc had Harris defer to Embiid, who shit the bed last seven minutes after playing marvelously for 3.5 quarters

Harris and Doc visibly in each others faces on the issue.

Harris would be a good Knick if we decided to move Julius, which we wont.  No way TH stays in Philly.

Kudos to the Hawks and I'm rooting for them 

But its not every day you see a home favorite lose an 18 pt lead in the 4th qtr of a critical G5.

this has been one weird NBA year

What were the Clippers thinking when they traded Lou Williams?

Thought about that 10 times.

The dude is impactful.

Can't make foul shots. And not a dazzling performance on the defensive end.

His stock is falling.

Appreciate the history lesson. But in the last month, how many Hawk playoff wins would have been losses without him?

IMHO....several.

I do so hate when they have a coach (Budey) FIRED before a game even starts

I wish him well

NBA Radio guys all over Giannis yesterday and today for crowning KD as best player in the world ("How do you do this when you are the 2-time MVP?").  I don't kill him for his honesty.

I am certain ANTETEKOUMPO is putting up a good fight tonight

Lou Williams played 53 minutes vs the Knicks.  That was in 5 games

He made 13 shots.  3 were three pointers.  And three free throws.

No Al Horford to Knicks


As I suspected - back to Celtics

OKC gets Kemba and a first rounder.


Ainge's mess cleaned up - sort of.

heh
