LAC-DAL thoughts:
-Clips could be this all the time. If they wanted to be.
-It’s so tough to hang in through Q1 and Q3 start, LA goes to the bench and here come Powell, Batum, Covington and Jackson.
-Mavs bench gives them nada. Stark contrast in this one.
-Good THJ game. – 8:36 AM

Mavs had tied the Blazers for the most losses in games led by double-digits, but Portland retook the lead by becoming the 1st team this season to lose after leading by 25+.
Most losses when leading by 10+…

2. Dallas: 20-10
3. Atlanta: 21-9
3. Minnesota: 22-9 – 12:14 AM

Per the Lakers: the 25-point halftime deficit is tied for second-largest halftime deficit overcome to win in Lakers history. Second only to a 28-point deficit on 12/6/02 vs Dallas. – 11:35 PM

@LakersReporter
What a wild comeback win for the Lakers, who go from a 25-point halftime deficit to a 121-112 win at Portland.
It’s tied for the 2nd biggest halftime deficit overcome to win in franchise history (2nd to a 28-point deficit on 12/6/02 vs Dallas).

The Lakers pull off a huge comeback and win in Portland to improve to 22-25. This is a game that could impact the jockeying in the West standings in a few months. LeBron had 37 & 11. Thomas Bryant had 31 & 14.

Given the way the Clippers tried to position themselves as the alternative to the Lakers’ glitz and glamour back in 2019-20, it’s amusing to note that the Lakers’ current starting (and tonight finishing) lineup is basically LeBron and role players working as hard as they can. – 11:18 PM

Tuesday will be interesting.
Mavericks don’t really like the paint, esp. with Wood out.
Lakers are extremely paint heavy, and unlike Spurs, they get free throws. And it’s national TV with Lawrence Tanter on the mic.
That will be a better test of any LAC defensive improvement. – 5:26 PM

Norman Powell continues to do that thing where he outscores entire teams’ bench units by himself.

Clippers were a dreadful 5 of 17 on field goals in paint in first half.

Dallas leads Clippers 54-49 at halftime. Another bad second quarter for Clippers where their defense collapsed.
And it’s not even Luka, who was 3/9 FGs with ZERO assists. It’s the first time this season Doncic had no assists in either half this season.

Reggie Jackson hits a couple threes (one on a bank) that helped Clips close the half on an 11-3 run, but he also over-drove on the last possession and LAC didn’t get an attempt out of it. Halftime: 54-49 Mavs – 3:34 PM

Dallas took double-digit lead prior to Batum 3 that cut lead to 48-41.
In a game of runs, Dallas went on 15-1 run to take control of game. Clippers losing possession battle, with biggest issue being the thing they’ve done well all season, defensive rebounds. – 3:29 PM

Clippers lead Dallas 22-20 at end of one.
Absolutely a matinee quality quarter of basketball. Clippers answered 16-2 Dallas run with a 15-0 run. That was fewest points Clippers allowed in 1st quarter since December 21 vs Hornets. Snaps a 5-game streak of allowing 30+ in 1st Q. – 3:07 PM

No team in the league I am more confused about than the Clippers.
Some games they look like title contenders.
Other games they look like they barely care at all.
The talent is there. But I’d like to see some level of care factor before the regular season ends from this group. – 3:03 PM

Ty Lue considers Paul George the de facto lead ballhandler in lineups w/o a traditional PG in part bc it keeps him in a rhythm even when the offense heavily features Kawhi.
“He’s bringing the ball up, so he still has a feel for the game where he doesn’t get lost in the offense.” – 1:10 PM

This was from Friday night as I was watching to see how Reggie Bullock made more 3s than entire Heat team.
But look (and listen) to Luka (who also made more 3s than Heat) on this play. Tells Josh Green to get it to Bullock in the corner and Green obliges with a nice dime pic.twitter.com/dS1ajv8P8i12:55 PM
