An early game for a team not adept at playing early games. Still it is the playoffs and we can send a strong statement with a dominant and decisive win tomorrow.
The main focus I see is keying in on Luka early and often and physically. We let him get into a groove even in a game 1 win, it could be a long series. I am not concerned with Porzingis, and I look to see Rajon Rondo play key minutes against a team he has strong motivation against.
A 4 game sweep would send a strong message, let's start it off right.

Clippers opened as 6.5 favorites, now 5.5 points.
Mavs money coming in?
Don't like game 1 to be day game, but yes, this is different.. this counts. Nine of the current roster suffered through last year's debacle, that has to be motivation. Ibaka is back, almost everybody is healthy... (Coffey - illness, Cousins - sore foot)
Let's go Clippers

Shocker, 2 fouls on Beverley already in an important game.
At least Zu's ready for the playoffs.

Freaking embarrassing start. Reason 50 why you don't rest players at the end of the year.

look pretty much like i expected them to
a team that hasn't put too many games together on a whole
definitely think putting beverley back into the starting lineup was a bad idea, as well. reggie earned it and they're used to him. instead we have jackass bev in foul trouble (again) in meaningful games (again).

Nothing would change if we played the starters. They'd just be choking like this against the Lakers instead of Dallas.

Just like last year, Kawhi and Zu are the only ones who aren't scared of the playoffs.

One of the stupidest fouls I have ever seen by Paul George on Brunson. He is losing a lot of athletic ability. Brunson was off balance. Luca abused him also. His defense is subpar. Hes not even a top 30 defensive player anymore
