Clippers Hold On in POR, 102-90 with Paul George Closing Late
Shap, Justin (@laclippersfilm), & Jag (@Mjags24) get together after a grind out W in Portland, 102-90 against a Blazers team missing their two best players in Damian Lillard and C.J. McCollum. Luke Kennard played well early and Paul George closed late, and the team experimented with another starting lineup this time starting Luke Kennard instead of Serge Ibaka. Are the guys encouraged from the win? How about this string of Mook games? And, what about that Brandon Boston Jr.?

Rob, Shap, and Joey (@joeylinn_) talk about a let down of a loss against the Kings, 104-99 that saw an up and down Clipper team play from behind pretty consistently against a mediocre, speedy Kings team that has had their number recently. Clippers started big and then started Terance instead of Serge the second half, were there any glimmers of hope there? Have expectations been reasonable with this Clipper team?

Eric Bledsoe was finally benched, LAC kept their 2 center starting unit, and some issues seemed addressed.. How sustainable is it, though?
