Gorgeous Kyrie. Didn't carry or even come close to traveling either.

if Luka's knee is something that will be better after a few days rest, Mavs aren't dropping more than one game to OKC,
worst matchup by far for OKC
Mavs really did well by their late season surge, they got very lucky with KL injured and a very favorable matchup in the semis as they'd probably lose to both the Wolves and the Nuggets
now they'll be rested and whoever survives the other semi would probably be banged up and very exerted
I like their chances

Yeah, I just bought myself a Kyrie jersey.
Too good.

That 4th foul they called on Irving was a disgrace

Just wanted to say that and-1 sequence by Kyrie was sensational.

And except for the foul trouble, looks like Dallas got this. They can't allow the Clippers to make a run though they are capable of heating up.

Without Kawhi Dallas is just better. Same ole story for the Clippers. Harden has step up again and he can’t do that consistently anymore.

Mavs might win this one but I'm not going to be surprised if Clippers win in Dallas Game 6. These teams have no fear of each other's courts, they actually play better there.

Yeah this things over. If Harden and George have it going, they can create a lead and do enough to hold onto it, but if they don't have it going, they don't have the wherewithal to scratch and claw their way to a win.

Teams are a combined 9-43 from three.

Huge exaggeration. Why do you think they're a bad matchup?
Let's ban bet on the winner of that series if you're that confident.

I feel sorry for the team who gives PG a max. Dude is just too laid back when it matters most.

Too bad they already called that (very early, dumb) challenge, they would have won this one.

I dunno if he can get the max but I think Clippers will definitely give him the most money. I think he stays. They're just stuck with that team and have to hope Kawhi can stay healthy for a playoffs.
You just don't see players leave the L.A. teams very often unless they're just not wanted.
