1. So this is what the pistons felt like huh😂

2. GO CLIPPERS!!

3. I hope the Clippers lose the next 6 straight, maybe then the delusional fans will wake up and see what the problem is and even then the excuses will still be made. I remember when the excuses were strong for Morris, until it wasn't; i remember when T-Mann was untouchable, until he wasn't. 6 straight wins and as soon as things were changed, went right back to playing uninspired ball, bad defense, no hustle, no life and back to losing, wonder what changed?

4. I knew Ty Lue would move away from the players that we're providing defensive energy, spacing, rotations, and chemistry during the 6 game streak.

5. I’ve been to a few clipper Celtics games and yeah the crowd is insane to see all those Boston fans

6. They were dong well with the small ball line up. Stubborn Lu just had to insert Zu. Insanity is doing the same thing over and over expecting a different result.

7. I knew this is coming. Law of averages & against a good cohesive team, we move on. Btw folks , I was streaming live and picked up Boston network..their announcers mocking JC's defense after acknowledging his good offense last night.They said Celts targeting him especially White..unfortunately I strongly agree. What's with JH though? Very off rhythm the last few games. His errors are a sorry sight, worse than PG13 😢

8. Well, the old NBA adage says if you paying him, you gotta play him therefore winning inadvertently takes a seat on the bench now & then. Zu a starter so he has to be on the court if he’s been cleared to play.

9. Kind of tight with that recklessness they keep doing with DJ and the coach hive fivjng him on the play. Now I hope they get injured.

10. It’s interesting hearing Clippers fans blame one player for this loss. Defense wins games. And the Celtics locked down the Clippers best players. Walsh and Brown smothered them. And White was unstoppable in the first half. 2 42 point quarters. We all know what the real problem is with the clippers.

11. We’ve seen enough, get rid of ZU while his value is high he is not some crucial piece for the clippers. James and Kawhi are the only guys we can’t trade, EVERYONE ELSE CAN GO

12. Clippers need a point guard who can compliment khawi not just offensively but especially defensively because that's what wins championships…I would trade harden for jrue holiday before the deadline!!!

13. Zu went down 6 straight win, Zu came back loss..i mean its not rocket science 😂

14. Conan was supposed to play more minutes just for the energy and blocks and youth and for sure I'll take em in a 7 game series

15. I hope not that another losing streak is in the offing now that Zu is around again 😥

16. With Tatum!! How the league’s going to deal with CELTICS..!?

17. He is not top 10 yet

18. zu no bueno

19. Dude… Lopez needs to start… i don't see why Ty won't do the twin towers method… run 2 bigs… we will kill small ball with 2 bigs

20. As a Cs fan I’m excited to see all this Zu chatter. Cs will take him off your hands for a first round pick and matching salary.

21. I hope to god they trade zu and bogi.

22. Prichard celebration after that play on djj was disgusting & gets a high 5 from the coach is flat out wrong!

23. Celtics just hit EVERYTHING. 1-5 all their starters can shoot – midrange, 3's, floaters. Solid ass team they played and lost to

24. I forgot to mention my frustrations with Harden. HE has NO DEFENSE and forces the other players on the team to help his ass out. He's only good to milk the clock when/if they have the lead, but I'm just tired of that dude.

25. I've been saying this. Kawhi and Hardin can put up 25-40 points no matter who's on the floor, but while Zu is on the court and while Ty Lue is the coach, those 25-40 points are going to be much more difficult. If Tu Lue is going to remain our coach then we have got to give the stars the space to operate. It's not an admonition on Zu, it's just common sense. Spacing the floor makes it easier for perimeter players to get to their spots in this era. One thing I'd like people to acknowledge is that the stat line for the Center is not what's crucial when we're talking Zu vs. Lopez, what matters is how having them on the court affects our team. Another thing Kawhi has got to stop catching the ball so high on the court. He needs to start catching the ball inside of the 3pt line, and face up immediately to see where the double is coming from. Not sure if that's on the coach or just a bad Kawhi tendency.

26. I've been saying it for years….Get the fuc*ing defensive rebounds. Nobody boxes out. They just watch the ball and hope the ball lands in their hands

27. The Celtics players know what their roles are and do their job. With the Clippers, they do not have an identity at all.

28. Brook Lopez and Zubacs has some of the same weaknesses. They both are slow to move their feet, they both get into foul trouble, and they both are not strong with the ball inside the paint with many instances where the ball gets stripped. Brook Lopez is the better center because of his offensive prowess and his willingness on defense and to stick to the fundamentals of defense. I disagree with when you said that kris Dunn is our best on ball defender. I think Kawhi is the better on ball defender. Other team like to take Kawhi completely out of the action on defense which is smart. the DJ situation had me heated because I feel like diving at players legs to get the ball is an extremely dangerous play. I think they should start moving that to be A flagrant foul. JB really had it going but the main reason I think this game was good for him was because we were throwing guards at him defensively which is a mismatch. Since he is obviously a forward I would’ve threw wings at him. Off this decision alone we could’ve won. The biggest problem with the clips is chemistry and the main reason is because we are trading great players every year since Kawhi has been a clipper. many great players. As always Darian thank for your analysis I know it’s hard work.

29. What a dirty play by Pritchard diving at DJJ's legs. That play was totally unnecessary as the ball wasnt even going out of bounds. Classless and rude celtics fans too showing up at the dome as well. Hope the Knicks destroy them this year as well

30. Powell had 34 tonight against pels btw

31. So if a player catches fire are we slow to see this and react. Why didn't Ty lue try to shut Brown down by doubling him throughout the game

32. So when was the last time Clippers won against Celtic in a dominant style. It has been belt to Ass against the clippers for some time

33. 12:15 he hasn't been playing well ever since kawhi caught fire.……kawhi is now the best player on the team

34. This season, without Tatum, shows who no 1, for me Tatum sometimes plays fantastic but sometimes plays really bad (far too many missed shots) and that hurts team. This season they have one superstar, one star – White, one three point killer Prichard and a group of very good role guys. Add very good coach and you have the results that speak for itself … not on a paper

35. For teams like Celtics you must prepare another defence, zone where big protect the rim and the other switch player. But the other four must be good defenders, and we got Harden and Collins and Bogdan and young guys aren't spectacular. So Celtics gave us good lessons …
