He's coming off the bench right? What sort of production were you expecting from him?

Gobert-killer Mann slender won't be tolerated
they need to run the harden/mann backcourt because it's the only way they have any backcourt or transition defense
with harden, PG, kawhi and westbrook on the team are you really surprised he's not getting stats, all those guys want their stats. they take all the shots
It turns out Mann and Harden both suck!
Most overrated role player in the league.
Mann is behind harden wesbrook pg kawhi and norman powell 🤣🤣 I bet he wishes he got traded to the 6ers
Clippers love their talking points. Terrance Mann is a great young player. Zubac is an incredible center who they got when the FO fleeced the Lakers. Four HOF players with So Cal roots on a mission.
It's like their entire team is run by the marketing department. Jerry West has been ignored and kept around only as another talking point. Remember he's the guy who found Shea.
Terrance Mann is a great young player.
This one is especially funny because when you tell people he's 27 you'll always get a person in the comments doing a double take because they've bought into the marketing and never questioned it.
Yep. Whenever I see Clipper fans talking about what a "promising young prospect he is" I say "yeah, imagine what his 5 ppg could blossom into when he's in his mid 30s in a couple years."
That’s rich coming from a lakers fan lol
Eh, I still wish we got him. Although it was still a fleece because Harden is a corpse.
He's a glue guy right now. He will look better once the rest of the team looks better.
Poor mann got promised the starting job than sidelined two yrs in a row
Good defender, and they were right, they didn’t need to include him in the trade. Harden is still a good player but far from someone you can just plug n play. Someone like Caruso is obviously not as good as Harden, but every contending team wants Caruso while Harden seemingly only had one suitor.
Well, good for the Sixers that they didn't get him then. Worked out for them.
Why are 76ers fans obsessed with dumping on Mann if he supposedly sucks so much? Lol it feels like a jealous ex or something. He’s a good role player and one of their only decent glue guys, for a team as old and decrepit as the Clippers, that’s worth something
10 games hard to tell. His shot doesnt look there yet.
Mann's coming back from injury & is a notoriously slow starter. He always does this and when they bench him they lose games.
While the primary goal of the trade was to get the first round picks, the Sixers got a huge upgrade getting Batum and Covington in the deal. Can't say enough about how great they are defensively. And can't say enough about how washed PJ Tucker is. Once Oubre comes back, the Sixers have a solid 9 man rotation with Covington, Batum, Reed, and Beverly coming off the bench. They went from having an extremely weak bench to a very solid one.
After the trade, I heard from Clippers fans that the Sixers were fleeced because the Clippers kept Hyland and Mann, but that doesn't really seem to be the case.
What could have happened to a player in a team with 2 ball-hog, 2 stars and several other vets?
Meanwhile Clippers are playing Russell Westbrook who is scoring 12ppg on 49%TS when they had Bones Hyland that before the Harden trade was scoring same 12ppg with 55%TS....
Clippers are a mess I think Mann is a lesser problem among anything else.
Tmann is the least of Clippers concerns. What I have a problem with is how uninspiring the offense is. Every play is literally just one of the stars taking turns with the ball. There’s hardly any ball movement. Ball gets thrown back out when a drive fizzles out. Also lineups are just atrocious. For example, any middle school coach can watch and tell you that PJ Tucker, Zubac, Westbrook is not a good lineup but Lue is basically that goofy meme.

He's a role player, important at that. But how do you expect him to fill up the stat sheet when touches are going to the big 4? Kawhi alone took like 26 shots last night and PG usually takes the most.
Losing record, doesn't seem that important
Thats a team failure. That line of thinking would imply Kawhi & PG are also not important.
He had that one good playoff game like 4 or 5 years ago - untouchable
Can someone who actually watches the Clippers tell me what the big deal about Mann is? He’s a career 7/3/2 guy. Why would it be noteworthy if he went 5/4/2 over a short stretch?
Give him time, he’s a young up and coming 27 year old.
He still young he going to have that breakout year soon.
