Disappointing game by Luka and Gafford.
Too bad as Kyrie is really cooking now.

Kyrie 20 points on 8-8 shooting in the quarter and they've barely dented the lead. Luka has just been dreadful.

Terence Mann hitting a shot like that, you know it's your night.

That's his shot. Check his percentages from that spot

People really don’t follow Clippers much.

They have great role players
-Zubac
-T Mann
- Powell
-Westbrook
-Harden
-Plumlee
-Coffey

And their main guys Paul George and Kawhi Leonard

They play tough defense and can get hot just like any other team.

But their identity is defense

Someone has to coach Luka - he just doing what he has been doing since year one. I don’t blame a guy that has a green light from shooting bad shots- I blame the coach

Pj Washington doing a decent job on PG. The big difference with Zu this year is he isn't jumping at every pump fake Luka throws

I could never root for Luka even if he's not playing against the Clippers. He's a walking advertisement for a diaper and pacifier.

But did you see all those step back threes in the regular season??


On a serious note - he is amazing, but he's not nearly as good as the MVP.
