Clippers Take Game 3 From Mavericks while Luka Doncic Suffers Injury

Well, that week was mostly not fun, but the Clips still ended up with a winning record. The Clippers have been inconsistent over the past few weeks, but finally have their roster intact and maybe have some time to get a few full practices in. They're fresh off an escape win against the Knicks (?), and a huge blowout loss to the Griz (?!?) the day before, and had some very uninspired late play against the Blake Griffin-less (yeah that one makes more sense) Pistons. Jae Crowder and Marcus Morris Sr. both gave compelling auditions this week, but are they the answer to the Clippers problems? Does this team need to make a move after a pretty mediocre week?

The Clippers are still really good, and the last week caught some of their best strengths as well as their flaws. In the midst of all of that, the team also lost Patrick Beverley and dropped a winnable game against the Jazz. A good chunk of the team felt ill in that Jazz game, though many will scoff at it being the reason they lost (it might really be part of it though). That Lakers win was still exhilarating, however, and the guys briefly discuss that win as well. Shap also managed to ask Kawhi Leonard, Doc Rivers, and Moe Harkless some questions directly, much to his chagrin.

The Clippers are 22-10, but have dropped three of their last five games, including two blown leads late to the Thunder and Rockets. Louis and Rob are back to discuss the Clippers' recent struggles, including whether or not a trade could help relieve some of their issues. The two then preview the Clippers' Christmas Day game against the Lakers and tangent into the dichotomy in the NBA between regular season game importance and the relatively minute impact of any one game in an 82 game schedule. Finally, they discuss former Clipper Blake Griffin and his horrendous start to the 2020 season.Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

The Clippers have continued playing, but quite a bit has happened behind the scenes at Clips Nation, with new California Labor Laws causing SB Nation to essentially plan to cut ties with the Clips Nation staff by the end of March. The community is still being run at the old website, but with the plan to transition to a new site called 213Hoops by February. Lucas Hann joins Rob and Shap to go into detail about what this move means for the content on the website and for the community at large. Lucas also talks about how you can help us with this transition and methods of support. The trio also can't help but chat a little bit about the Clippers to end the pod.

Then, the pod transitions into a look at the upcoming NBA trade season and what to make of yesterday's Lowe-Woj trade report on ESPN. Finally, the guys dish out some disrespect on NBA issues and teams that deserve more attention.Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Thanks for the ring and the W, Raps. Kawhi Leonard showed up in Toronto, shook some hands, and then efficiently helped the Clippers beat the Raptors on the road. Paul George was not greeted with open arms in Indiana, but he put on a virtuoso performance to lead the Clippers in a tough win for a weary Clipper team. After a thud against the prepared Bucks, the Clips have looked really good on this road trip. The guys talk about those games and take your Twitter questions as always on the latest episode of the Lob, the Jam, the Podcast!Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Since the last episode of Same Old Clippers, the Clips have lost twice, which means a double episode of the show. First off, the guys discuss those losses, and what exactly happened that led to the Clippers dropping both games. Then, they segue into Kawhi Leonard's issues, which surprisingly center around his offensive game and inconsistent shooting. From there, they move into a discussion on the Clippers' competition for the NBA Championship, focusing on the suddenly joyous Lakers and the machine-like Bucks. Finally, the two go on a lengthy diatribe against access journalism in the NBA, how that's damaging content and coverage, and why that plays into the NBA's weak rankings this season.Learn more about your ad choices.

The Clippers had a pretty good week despite a disappointing loss to the Spurs. The win in Dallas was impressive, with the team pulling away in the second half and never looking back while limiting phenom Luka Doncic in the process. The Memphis win left a lot to be desired and the Spurs loss was brutal to watch, but the team rebounded against the hapless defense of the Washington Wizards to feast for a casual 150. Afterwards, Kawhi Leonard stated that the team is still learning each other, and that remains very evident despite a solid start in the brutal Western Conference. How close is this team to reaching their potential? All that and your Twitter questions on the latest episode of the Lob, the Jam, the Podcast!Learn more about your ad choices.
