“I felt like they were not at our level,” a visibly agitated Kristaps Porzingis said, trying to find his words and gesturing after the game. “We just lost the game. Obviously LeBron did his thing and played well, but – some mental mistakes from us. I don’t know what to say. It’s tough, it’s tough, it’s tough. But yeah. We’re going to get out of it. “If [Kuzma’s three-pointer] went in, it would have been a completely different movie. Nobody wants to be in this position, but we’re going to have to find a way out, to dig our way out of this.”

LeBron James had Kristaps Porzingis matched up on him on the perimeter and declined a screen. Wizards able to get a switch to Will Barton, but it doesn’t matter.
James drains the 3 and looked away to the crowd knowing it was going in as soon as he shot it. – 11:25 PM

It took all game for Terance Mann to adjust to Porzingis rim protection.
It results in a 3-point play out of the timeout. – 6:22 PM

Kristaps Porzingis said after the first Wizards-Clippers matchup last week that LAC has always been one of the more physical teams defending him and that is certainly on display this afternoon with Ty Lue playing small ball. – 6:08 PM

Wizards lead the Clippers 57-50 at the half. Key stat: Wizards have a 36-14 edge in points in the paint.
This after they gave up 98 PITP last game without Kristaps Porzingis. Turns out he makes a difference. – 5:08 PM

Kristaps Porzingis has been outstanding at the rim in this game. Clippers offense has been a complete failure inside the arc.
Wizards on a 7-0 run with points either scored or assisted by… Corey Kispert.
That 2nd quarter again. Wizards up 52-37 with 3:53 left in first half. – 4:56 PM

LA transition defense can be better.
After Wall found Diabaté for a dunk, Wizards scored their next two baskets in 5 seconds each.
Porzingis missed his first shot over Diabaté, but hit the next three.

Clippers starting Moussa Diabaté today instead of Moses Brown is their effort to discourage Kristaps Porzingis from getting comfortable outside of the paint.
Also, Wizards are preparing for Clippers to spend much of the game switching. Should mean RoCo off bench. – 2:41 PM
