ROUND 1, GAME 2: Mavericks @ Clippers Tuesday 7:30PM PDT

[MartinToVaught]

This is a LeBron-like playoff performance by Kawhi.

[Clemenza]

Kawhi is scoring, praise god!! Been waiting to see this Kawhi since he joined the team. Hell of a first half. Outside of a couple missed wide open three's good half from PG. Please don't stop driving to the basket. Zu and Morris are stinking it up. Solid halves from Batum, Reggie, and Pat Bev. I still want to see Mann get some run and can we please please please get some defensive stops???

Have ya'lls role players been acting like this all season? The Marcus Morris (and PG) flex & stare down on Maxi in game 1. Patrick Patterson (and whoever the nobody was next to him) talking noise to KP when he fell on the PG crossover. I'd be embarrassed if I were a Clippers fan. They should be taking their cues from Kawhi. Goes out and gives ya 30 in the 1H and acts like he does it all the time. Class act.

[NippySudz]

This is the Kawhi I've been wanting to see all season long. This is the REAL kawhi.

Bold prediction...

First team to play defense wins...lol

we better keep scoring

it took 130+ to win 2 of the playoff games last year and we lost another 135-133

[Captain Ballmer]

What's the point of getting lots of "two way" players and not to play D. I understand Luka got his but not THJ or Brunson.

Kawhi doesn't love scoring the way true scorers do--in fact I think he resents when he has to carry the scoring load because it means everybody else is doing dogspit.

Kawhi's dream team is where he's the SECOND-leading scorer and he does everything else.

The problem is Luka is getting balanced help. Kawhi and PG are not. Morris needs to step up. Attack the rim or something. We cannot simply expect Kawhi and PG to outscore the balanced Mavs scoring.

Sounds like a guy you dedicate a 48-34 season to and a guy who you let force you to trade for Paul George.

[Quake Griffin]

Does Tim Hardaway Jr. miss?

I mean ever.

[MartinToVaught]

Still not a single adjustment yet from Ty Rivers.

Can't play that role now. He's gotta go Dame Lillard tonight

What adjustment? Fight over and stay on Luka, Mavs were shooting 60%+. Send a double team, Mavs were shooting 60%+, switch, Mavs were shooting 60%+. Zubac on, 60%+, Ibaka on, 60%+. What's the adjustment that you think will work the magic?

[playaloc916]

Morris is broken

[MartinToVaught]

Still not a single adjustment yet from Ty Rivers.

What adjustment?

Bench Zu, bench Reggie, play Mann.

[Scoundreldays]

Monstars stole Morris' talent

[Quake Griffin]

PG making excuses for missing that bunny?

They can try Ibaka, why not, it's not some guaranteed change. I know people like adjustments even just for the sake of it, because at least it feels like the coach is doing something. Mann can't guard Luka, and the Clippers issue isn't needing an offensive spark or anything like that, it's figuring out how to get stops. (well not they need some scoring)

[Clemenza]

Why in the f*ck is Rondo not in the f*cking game!!!!

[GamecockFan1024]

Like I said in Game 1, the others aren't stepping up. They're **** the bed.
