Clippers at Knicks Game Day 2026-01-07

Clippers Forum » Clippers Game Day

What are your thoughts on the game against the Knicks? What are the Clippers keys to get a win? Which opposing player(s) should L.A. focus the D on? Will the game be first to 115 points or first to 100 gets the W? Who will step up?

Good to see Harden able to go- hitting some bingos so far, and Kawhi is much sharper from deep already vs last game.

Clips play good D there but during the scramble McBride able to hit from the corner

Nice move and hook shot by Zu!

Kawhi doing damage in the lane with a variety of shots- mini J, hook, step through he's go all the moves.

The Klaw now on the break, stop and pop bingo!

OMG challenge that! Brunson shoves Leonard and they call Kawhi for the offensive? Ridiculous.

Clips a solid first half- up 56-51. Gotta keep up the defense, and expect more doubles on Leonard.

Zu good hustle. The rebound and putback, blocks McBride's 3!

These refs man- clean strip there and the ball goes off of Towns and they give the ball to the Knicks. And of course they hit a 3 after that.

Is Draft Kings and Fan Duel in charge of the referees?

Let's just get it over with and remove the dribbling...

Huge strip by Harden after Kawhi gave it up

Wow Yabusele hits a rainbow 3 over Collins who gave a great contest

They double off of Batum and he makes them pay with the bingo. But the Clippers just cannot stop the Knicks from scoring- either on the floor or sending them to the line.

Lopez that was a much needed bingo! Clippers 85-81

Clips down 90-87 going into the 4th just unable to consistently stop the Knicks. They're just getting into the paint at will and either hitting easy floaters or getting fouled.

Ouch- Clips missing 3's and giving up layups

Zu trying to keep the Clips afloat with tip-ins

Well if the Clippers aren't going to hit those open 3's, it's gonna be tough

James, Kawhi, and Nico are the only players on our team who aren't low stress shooters.

JMill.... scores every time down the floor in the GLeague, missing wide open threes.

Lopez, Collins, Dunn.... miss pretty much every three point shot with a nearby contest

I'm thankful they're playing hard and aren't giving up, but this isn't looking good.

It's even more frustrating because nobody on this team can guard Zu....

Clippers finally hit a 3- good play outta the timeout with Collins nailing the bingo

This is the first game in a long while where the Clipper interior defense has looked bad. Hey Dunn finally hits a 3- he's been good recently from deep but was 0-5. Clips still have a tough hill to climb down 12 with 4 minutes left

Collins another bingo- slices it to 9

Ahhhhhhh maaaaaaannn.... I wish Yanic got to play more... no way the'd run 3 Centers.

Diawara's in! I hate that we traded him. He'd be a great fit with our future front court

Final score Clippers lose 123-111. Credit the Knicks for attacking inside as the Clippers offered little resistance. They also hit a bunch of 3's, while the Clips missed too many. Clips with only 10 turnovers and still lost, mostly due to the poor D in the second half. Seemed like the legs were a bit weary.

Yeah Yanic was playing well so that's ashamed he's down to just garbage minutes now. Wouldn't mind seeing him in there with Zu or Lopez here and there, especially tonight when the Knicks were getting way too many second chances. Younger legs could've helped with the constant blow-by's.

Kobe Sanders had a tough night on defense, but you expect that with the veteran scorers like Brunson, Clarkson, Deuce....

Harden was getting killed on several possessions, and honestly.... it coulda been worse. I wonder how far Cam is from PT.

Yanik should play more minutes as he defends well. We won the last few games because of good defense.

The game was close until the end of the 3rd. It appears KL got the memo when there were rumors that he has little trade value…lol.

Hope the Clippers win more games in Jan as the schedule is somewhat lighter that what it was in the past few weeks.
