The last time the Clippers lost at least 4 games in a row was a 5-game losing streak in January 2019.
Since then, the Clippers have won 7 games in a row to avoid what would be a 4th consecutive loss, including three times this season (at Los Angeles, at Sacramento, vs Hawks) – 7:49 PM

The Clippers attempted only 23 3s Thursday night, their second-fewest of the season.
Since trading Eric Bledsoe, Luke Kennard has only been able to get free for 11 3-point attempts (making 4 of them) in 3 games.
Here’s what Lue had to say about freeing up some 3s for his team: pic.twitter.com/32ltsm5CQ8 – 7:44 PM

Jason Kidd said he hasn’t added anyone to fill Kristaps Porzingis’ spot on the 3-man “leadership council” with Luka, THJ.
Kidd suggested Jalen Brunson as the next option.
“Maybe we vote to see if we can let him on. … Maybe we keep the council with 2. That’s easier on me.” – 7:07 PM

Davis Bertans: “I’m not a guy who takes the ball, creates something for myself and then shoots. If I don’t get set up by a teammate, it’s really hard for me to get a rhythm going. Getting shots every 10, 15 minutes, it’s really hard to get that % up.” Looks forward to Luka dimes. – 6:44 PM

Spencer Dinwiddie has several Mavs connections already:
Played with assistant Jared Dudley, vs. Marquese Chriss. Remembers a 2013 dunk over Dwight Powell well.
And said only downside of coming to Dallas is “unfortunately” playing with Theo Pinson again.
“You can print that.” – 6:42 PM

You know what I think? Teams have to decide if they’re going to live with Luka scoring a lot of pts, or live with him racking up a lot of assists while also scoring between 25-35 pts.

Mavs fans are notoriously late arriving, but given Luka’s 1st qtr pyrotechnics all season, they might want to try to rethink that philosophy. Luka in last 9 games w/8 10+ in 1st. 13.9 pts/53 FG%/58.3 3pt% – 3:11 PM
