We'd have a decent lead if they'd stop bricking free throws.

53% free throws made.

He's already scanned the floor to know where the teammate is, the no look is to throw off the defense

Luka looks so slow and out of shape. Is he back on the beer diet?

I'm not sure how that isn't called. The ref is literally staring at George hitting his leg while he's in the air. It was pretty blatant

This is the effect of the Clippers defense. The scheme they have deployed has been really effective, but Luka is starting to get into the cracks.

Did PG commit a Pachulia on Hardaway?

ChipotleWest · Post #1190 » by **ChipotleWest** » Wed Apr 24, 2024 3:11 am

Clippers are a bad matchup for both Luka and Kyrie. Their size strength and speed give both fits.

Having said that they still had 64 in game 1, and a lot of times Kyrie goes off in the 4th quarter.

Clippers have such low BBIQ. They collectively play ISO hero ball and too often settle for long contested 2s. Almost like they're not trying to win so the series can be extended. Odd

I'm sitting here telling Harden to stop playing hero-ball and then he does that.

Too many chefs. I think they should just let Harden cook and dish

its been interesting how much the refs have been letting teams play this year. So much of the games ive watched already felt like games that would have been just 30 ft kind of nonsense in previous seasons.

This looks like Harden's Clippers, not Kawhi's or PGs. Harden vs Luka.

Kyrie is poetry in motion.

Great defense by Kleber to stop the Luka lay up.

:lol:

@ Luka wanting a foul though

Mavs seem terrified to go 1 on 1 without trying to switch into the Clippers centers. Let’s see some 1 on 1 ****

Announcers talk about Harden like he's senile and 50 years old, meanwhile hes playing the best for the clips.
