NBA 2018-19: 3 Talking Points from Philadelphia 76ers win over the Los Angeles Clippers in a chippy game

#2 The Clippers' long-range shooting was surprisingly disappointing

Danilo Gallinari is averaging a career-high 19.6 ppg game this season.

Doc Rivers' team is shooting an unexpectedly great 38% from the distance this season, which is the third-best conversion rate from deep this year around. With no legit star players to show on their roster, the Clippers have really broken all stereotypes and emerged as a collectively sound unit.

However, this game would tell a different story altogether, as they shot a sorrowful 5-of-25 from deep, bringing their three-point percentage down to a dismal 20% against the Sixers. Although they shot a decent 46.2% from the field, no Clippers player could make more than a couple of three-pointers.

Top-scorers Danilo Gallinari and Tobias Harris went 2-of-6 and 1-of-4 from distance respectively. Former Sixth Man of the year and Clippers' backbone, Lou Williams attempted eight three-pointers but could only convert one, ending the game with a team-high total of 22 points somehow.
