It's still mind boggling how often they continue to let Zu switch onto Luka.

For those not watching TNT, Ty: Our strategy is to wear Doncic out--sending defenders at him Kawhi at the moment Yes, Doncic is keeping the in the game but he's working his ass off

More Ty: 48 minutes--keep attacking.

Getting to halftime plus or minus 4 will be all according to plan.

_______________

LATE ADD: Clips down 2 at the half. No panic.

The 3rd is very important. We have to break the mavs the third quarter.

Not sure I understand and logic behind letting Luca sit off the ball, and only Rondo is the one who is smart enough to make him the tag man on a Zu lob. He either helps on the rim run or it's an open three.

He then picks up his second foul with 8 minutes left and we don't even attack him once. You have to make him play defense, be it on ball, defending a ball screen or as the primary help defender.
Plus, why would I want to go to the NBA? Duke players suck in the pros.

Glad they are only down by 2 points at halftime but Leonard and George need to play more like games 3 and 4 in the second half.

I swear to god, no other team is more ridiculously loyal to net-negative players than the Clippers. Reggie needs to be benched for at least the rest of this series. Mann needs to play more. This is insanity.

He needs to make a few more to make up for that BS at the end of the first half.
