2024 NBA Playoffs - West 1st Round: #4 Los Angeles Clippers vs #5 Dallas Mavericks (DAL WINS 4-2)

[HardenGoat]

Tie game. Just gotta keep the pressure up and execute.

[mademan]

Why are people crying refs? Jones clipped his foot on the screen. Even the Mavs broadcast is agreeing

If I’m not mistaken, Dallas was in the bonus quicker in this quarter as well

Clipped his foot after being pushed on a moving screen

[MaliBrah]

The Mavs are just so predictable to defend man lol

[tmorgan]

This is a serious brick fest.

[Zeno]

I’m suggesting they are trying to force a game 7 but it seems like the refs got a when in doubt, favour the Clippers policy this game.

keep shooting luka haha

[CobraCommander]

Kidd - tell Luka to play pick and roll and go to the lane Everytime down and get the FTs or Dunks until the stop it…

No more step back 3s which let the clippers back in

[srhcan]

Mavs looking a bit afraid of the moment

[Petergrifindor]

Doncic has to keep shooting. It's important to his game.

But he has to make them.

And Kyrie has to appear.


With a normal game of those two these should be over.

prime harden broke basketball.. elite coaches like spo, mike malone and steve kerr were crying to adam silver to nerf harden. the nba didn’t even move the 3point line because of the warriors lol

How can you argue he broke basketball when he never even won a championship

The only argument for "breaking basketball" is that he took ref baiting to a completely different stratosphere. Fortunately that strategy has never worked in the playoffs.

imagine stanning heliocentric players like caitlin clark and luka but hating the actual pioneer of said style

[HardenGoat]

keep shooting luka haha

If he was Harden it would be called choking

[JustBuzzin]

Pressure is now back on the Mavs to close this out.


I'm not trying to see Harden and PG in the next round. These dudes are so laid back and they don't seem to play with any urgency. Boring duo.

Clippers established a level of physicality that allows them to get away with contact. Cannot foul out the entire team just because they are doing it on every single possession.
Mavs are getting called for touch fouls. The two decisions against DJJ changed the momentum and started the Clippers run.

oh i know

[CobraCommander]

Kyrie 1-7 but somehow plus 8???

[ChipotleWest]

Awesome you're playing defense now Ky, but you can't have 2 points.

[Chuck Everett]

How Westbrook sees himself on the court at this stage in his career.

Looks like the Mavs were playing more physical defense in that first half to me. They played pretty solid D all together. Luka chucking like 5 bricked 3s in a row might have ignited that run even more.

[SpreeS]

Doncic and Harden are really deserving their comparison

[ChipotleWest]

Kyrie 1-7 but somehow plus 8???

Why follow +/- it's a dumb statistic unless you're saying "they were -8 when [Player X] was off the court" when on the court it's just one of 5 guys.
