Not used to seeing him second guess like this. Lots of jumping and passing, jumping to shoot but having second thoughts. Just strange

Mavs have psyched him out, he’s mentally done

Maybe. I kind of feel like OKC is way better. Too many guys on the Mavs don’t need guarding. If Kleber is out, that is especially true.


I have the Thunder in the conference finals as well, however, I do believe Hardaway will be back for that series. It also doesn't start until Tuesday. I'm intrigued to see Kyrie and Luka vs. Shai and J-Dub for a full series. Chet will have his hands full with Lively and Gafford. My ex-factor is the one, Mr. Lugentz Dort. Daigneault will sic him on whoever's cooking between Luka and Kyrie. I imagine Luka will be getting frustrated with him.

This Kyrie version (3.0?) is by far the most enjoyable Kyrie, first time I've seen him committed to the hustle and defense side of the game, not sure anyone has done a 180 faster in basketball esteem

Both in level of play and complaining. Any other player would have gotten two techs, one for the hand jousting, and another for walking up and continuing to whine


Soon you'll be out of your misery.


Luka's retiring?

Or is he growing up and not whining every play?


Nah your team will be eliminated.

PG second guessing himself on offense and getting torched on defense. What a sight to behold.

So that means I won't be able to watch games?

Weird. Guess fans of a player and team that need an extra three guys don't watch other teams.z

Not Clippers games but sure you can watch other games. I assume you won't have the emotionally connection you do to the Clippers and won't complain about every call.

Neither of these teams are beating OKC in seven games.

Yeah... but it's more commendable when your skill level matches your energy and heart.
