It is very tight. I am on the edge of my seat.
All human life on the earth is like grass, and all human glory is like a flower in a field. The grass dries up and its flower falls off, but the Lord’s word endures forever.

If Kawhi wasn't so fragile Clippers could have a bigger lead going to the 4th

Zubac needs to learn from Jokic, just fall on the floor then scream at the ref. It works.

dude got some great rest. He's going off in the 4Q.
Dont even think Jokic can sit for more than a minute or something.

Bogdanovic's minutes have been an abject disaster. Can he give anything to Lue for having this confidence in him?

He got going late there, but by HIS standards where he can easily go for 40/20 it actually is. Clippers sat Zu and Kawhi much of that quarter

That's the thing about guys in his class: Lebron, Jordan, Kareem etc.
They kick ass so often and so easily that they turn in games that would be great games for HOFers without notice.

my guess is Coach Lue will give him a last chance at home for Game 3, if he falls flat then he'll fet pulled from the rotation

The officials handled the previous situation poorly. They got the original call correctly on Murray. But once the first call was made its no longer a live ball situation. Its a dead ball situation. Murray continued to pick up and try to toss the other guy during a dead ball situation. That's an automatic 2 shots and the ball treated like a technical foul. The other guy gets his 4 foul shots and then the Clippers get the ball at half court. The way it was it was handled tonight by tonight's official there was no punishment for Murray starting all that crap.

Yea, I meant more by his usual. He’s a guy who can have 20/15 at halftime. It didn’t feel as dominant as usual. But yea his bad games still crap on 99.9% of players “good” ones

I get why Lue is sitting Kawhi, to keep him fresh and possibly play him the whole 4th. Meanwhile the Nuggets are trailing and are going to have to sit Jokic for his rest. If Clippers can runaway during the non-Jokic minutes then this game is over

Pulling the chair doesn’t mean simulating hitting someone over the head with a chair.
When will we just change the name of 25 of the 30 teams to the Washington Generals?
Please advise….

Someone needs to tell Jokic to stop running dribble hand offs when he has smalls on him.
