paul george's impact when he's his usual self is really strong.

murray's having a hard time with PG on him. and PG's just doing good things, communicating, getting people in the right spots.

McNuggets are completely outclassed.

Loving it so far.

Yah I saw that too but he played 8 minutes at plus+7. Fortunately we have depth so we can get away with it.

important, imo, to look at the minutes split between zubac/harrell.

zubac has twice as many as his counterpart. looks like doc's faith in him is here to stay.

now, if montrezz gets back to 100% that might shift back to something more balanced, but i don't see zubac taking less minutes than harrell for the rest of the playoffs.

Great first half. Keep the intensity when they start hitting shots

I think it's matchup related too. Boban and Jokic is much more of a Zubac matchup, where last year's OKC team was definitely more for Harrell.

Zu has earned his minutes. Trezz still doesn't look right to me. Zu played 15 minutes @ plus+9, Trezz--playing some against Jokic but mostly against Plumlee--was plus+7 in only 8 minutes.

Can we drop the Doc douchebagging already? Zu is playing the best ball of his career and Trezz some of his worst this season. Doc's minutes distribution is righteous.

Every Clipper is in the plus. As Kelphus said, we are outclassing them, and our depth is no small part of that. Jokic and Murray have played 20 minutes each already and we're up by 18.

Even with Adams? OKC last year seems like Zu series as well because the length, Zu having a history of playing well, and limiting Russ attack

Trez seemed better in the second quarter. The 1st quarter everyone seemed to be finding their legs
