What is Crowder even doing here. He’s extremely dirty, this isn’t a basketball play in the slightest, he slaps Kuz for the hell of it
i think there's basically zero chance the clippers lose to dallas. i think we have a small chance that rests on lebron going gonzo on phx--which is possible. i really think crowder and bridges have gotten his attention in a way they don't want it.
I feel the Mavs needed to win one of the games at home to beat the Clips. I don't know about their long term prospects though as I honestly feel like the Mavs have shown weaknesses in their defensive abilities and am not sold they would beat Utah.
I need to see how we come out against the Suns in game 5 to really make a call with us at this point. The other guys have got to really step up.
ironically, the mavs probably match up better with utah than with the clips (mitchell's a much less formidable iso player than kawhi), but i don't think they'd beat them, either. yeah, we've waited four full games to get something special out of the role players and really haven't seen much. time is running out.
mavs were never going to win the series they only won the first two games because they were making every 3 they took, which obviously isn't sustainable. and now with luka injured, they have no chance
Dall has better record on the road, so its not surprising they lost both hm gms, gm #3 they came out hot but couldnt sustain it, i still like dall in this series not cause i want clipps to lose, just need Zingis n role players to step up n Luka shoulder improves a little more
Clippers are still vulnerable in close games. They were aided by having a strong enough margin to close games 3 and 4. Also, Coach Carlyle made a catastrophic mistake in resting Luka too early in game 3.
Flippers have made excellent adjustments after being owned the first two games. It is time for Dallas to return serve (albeit on the road).
He's not but has the unsolvable weapon for the opponent D in the playoffs unlike Bron : the midrange pull up shot
right now, yes. can kawhi make it through 4 rounds? will he be soft if he doesn't? is he soft when he's resting in 1/4 of his games? also just killing one-on-one matchups by getting all the way to the rim. lebron's ankle obviously doesn't feel strong enough for him to do that. leonard looked kinda like that by the time toronto got to the finals, but luckily, the other squad lost two all-nba players, so he got a ring. last year we didn't even get a chance to see how tough and durable he is because their sorry a**** got beat by a pretty mediocre nuggets team in the second round. a nuggets team that was batted around like a dead bird by our band of soft losers just 8 months ago. oh wait, that was all dwight mcgee or something.
Clippers are going to advance and we're not This is why I was never in this thread jumping up for joy when they were down 2-0. You guys reacted too prematurely.
don't know if you're addressing me, but i always said the clips were advancing. and we were advancing until AD went out again. though i'm sure the narrative will be framed differently later by the laker haters. we were in the driver's seat.
I'm not - I would have highlighted you. I just seen most of twitter and forums go crazy when they were down. Figured Dallas would blow it and Kawhi would go nuclear. We shall see.
