Not watching the game...just going by box-score, seems like the game is fairly reffed. Just 5 FTA for both teams & Clips have 7 fouls vs 4 fouls for Nuggets. Why are some people here acting like refs are favoring Clippers ?

Kawhi is still that dude. Jokic vs Kawhi is hands down the most compelling first round match up.

Harden and Westbrook basically cancel each other out with their stupidity

Why are we talking like Jokic is being single covered lol. He's literally being swarmed by 3 clippers as soon as he's in the paint.

Dude OKC exists.
I've only seen 3 Thunder games all year. I phrased the question that way because I haven't seen enough of the west yet to see who is worthy of playing us.

It truly makes me sad. If he had a healthy career, there's no doubt in my mind he would have retired a top-10 player of all time.

Kawhi is so unphased by anything, can’t speed him up or slow him down, going to get any shot he wants at his own pace.

Kawhi's durability holds him down all-time. He just gets hurt way too much. But if he had durability he might have ended up a top 10 guy all time.

Plenty of possessions he’s been stifled by Zu.
