Mentioned it a while ago, but I’ve moved over to Substack. You can catch all my comings and goings over there. Give it a follow (or read, or whatever) if you’re at all interested in Clippers content and other random musings. Greatly appreciate all of you. justinrusso.substack.com

🚨NEW: The LA Clippers battled hard on Thursday night, but the loss was a hallmark of a team that was weary, undermanned, and prone to many mistakes. The schedule is taxing. But it is for all. There’s 12 games left. Time to grit teeth and sprint to the line. 🔗LINK BELOW!!👇👇

Clippers are 9-9 this season against the Bulls, Grizzlies, Jazz, Kings, Mavericks, and Pelicans. Hindsight 20/20, but those are some killer losses to have, even if some were earlier in the season as the Clippers were dealing with their own issues.

To achieve a 15th consecutive winning season, the LA Clippers have to go at least 8-4 in their remaining 12 games.

The 59.4% free-throw shooting by the LA Clippers tonight was their worst in a game as a franchise (min. 30 FTA) since Nov. 25, 2022. They came into tonight shooting an NBA-leading 82.8%.

Final: Pelicans 105, Clippers 99. Missed free throws (Clippers shot 59% on 32 FTA), costly fourth-quarter fouls (10 FTA for New Orleans off of them), and ill-timed defensive decisions send the Clippers tumbling to 34-36. Rough trip so far. At Dallas on Saturday. Need to win it.

Would love to know what the worst free-throw shooting night was for any team that came into that game leading the NBA in FT%. But the Clippers have to be challenging it: 19-for-30 (63%) in a game they trail 100-97 with 3:28 left.

Clippers came into tonight making 82.8% of their free throws, which led the NBA. They’ve only converted on 64% tonight, missing 10 of their 28 tries. They trail, 96-94.

Clippers and Pelicans combined for 18 turnovers in the first 3 quarters tonight. And then coughed it up 9 times in 3 minutes to open the fourth.

End Q3: Pelicans 87, Clippers 84. Clippers shot 58% in the third and went to the line 10 times. But they didn’t win the quarter (ended 32-32). Been a scrappy one. Largest lead all night is 7. It’s been played in a 12-point window. Derrick Jones Jr. leads all scorers with 20.

Halftime: Pelicans 55, Clippers 52. Clippers shot 44%, Pelicans at 52.5%. But Clippers hanging around despite all this. However, the 5 missed free throws don’t help. John Collins and Derrick Jones Jr. each with 12 points. Clippers shot just 45% INSIDE the paint. Yuck.

Clippers came into tonight as the third-best team this season at FG% inside the restricted area (71%). However, through the first 19 or so minutes this evening, the Clippers have converted on just 5 of their 11 tries in that area. All tied at 41-41.

Random factoid: Trey Murphy III is 3 dunks away from being the third player this season to log at least 100 dunks and 100 made 3s. The two who have done it so far are Victor Wembanyama and OG Anunoby. Murphy would be the only player this season to get to 100 dunks and 200 3s.
