So far we've been tested twice. The suns haven't. They've been fortunate of good luck due to injuries. Let's see if they could survive the test or we can advance.

Congratulations, first WCF for the franchise.

Jackson shot really well, with a lot of confidence.

Mann with that game.

All the role players are stepping up, now with PG13 playing more consistently. Just have to hope Kawhi can play.

Maybe i was being ungenerous at 30% odds that i called before Game 6.

I didnt expect Lue to shorten the rotation to the extant that he did, however it worked out beautifully. The team didnt run out of gas in the 2nd half and was able to blow up the Jazz and come back from an insane 25 point deficit. The amount of grit and heart this team has is insane. When they went down 20+ points in Game 3, i was like, "yup season over,, cya Kawhi". Never thought id see such a turnaround in ability to fight back.

Comes down to making shots.

I can't find down stats per series but they must have really shot the lights out vs. Jazz.

I wouldn't say it's a fluke given that the Clippers shot well during the regular season. But Jackson balled out. He's going to get some offers.
