Davis was pissed at how Jokic threw him the ball.

Norman Powell is a baffling man

I'm not sure Powell could even shove Jokic that hard lol. It truly amazes me hot easy it is to trick these refs.

Murray not getting the ball to Jokic with smalls on him…

first game was good too. I'm hoping for seven games and I don't even care who wins

I would say to sit Powell but then they may bring in Bogdanovic who has been unplayable in this series.

Can't believe I'm rooting for Harden but here we are. This Clippers team is pretty enjoyable to watch

Wow, James Harden is actually showing up in the playoffs so far. A surprising development that's coming of this series considering his history with playing worse basketball during the post season compared to the regular season.

You mean, like Jokic acting like a train hit him cus Powell tapped him?

Powell shoved him lol Jokic did fall off-balance.

Jokic has to exaggerate the contact because similar to guys like Shaq, refs won’t call the fouls on them because they’re so strong and able to finish through everything. So he has to basically flop.

Similar to prime LeBron too.

Cmon.

He's learning that you only get foul calls when you flop. Thank the dumbass officials who allow this to happen...

Wrong. Batum/DJ can absorb it. They have less than half his minutes each

Id give Coffey some burn he can't shoot any worse than they have been and he's a little bigger

A 300 pound flopping center. Who could that be?

Of course he’s doing it against Denver. He couldn’t do it against Golden State though when he was in his prime.

they kinda have no choice, Bogi is scared ****, Powell has the most experience with the group and can get hot in an instant

Who wins?
