[WC First Round] (4)LA Clippers vs. (5)Dallas

Winning an NBA championship is hard, Cuban has it right. It's not the coaching staff's fault that their peak strategy and talent pool wouldn't be able to overcome the Clippers humming along at 75%. Better off looking at making player moves as it's clearly Luka time right now.

 

Porzingis played like his knees hurt.

 

mergady and yao be laughing

 

porzingus was better last year. he is getting paid superstar money but impact of a role player. they don't need a new coach they need to find a way to upgrade the roster. they probably should have kept seth curry.

 

Funny. Zeke was saying this postgame

 

Would love to see an update

 

“You can’t run the offense every single possession and not get tired” lol

 

So we don’t give the unicorn a break because the coach has asked him to spread the floor and not post up (takes the ball away from you know who).

 

Well, his fans got their wish.

He be resting now.

 

??

Porzingis sucks at posting up…he was in the 59th percentile on post ups during the regular season, and was a pathetic .75 points per possession on postups in this series…that’s barely higher than Westbrook’s PPP on Iso’s these playoffs, and Russ shot 33% from the field

 

Kristaps can't post up. He's terrible at it.

 

Porzingus Regular Season post up stats

2020 - PPP 0.98 49% fg 58% percentile
2019 - PPP 0.81 37% fg 27% percentile
2017 - PPP 0.96 43% fg 73% percentile
2016 - PPP 0.81 37% fg 30% percentile
2015 - PPP 0.82 40% fg 44% percentile

His post up numbers makes Post Orlando Dwight Howard look like Hakeem in comparison.

Clippers have more overall talent, but Luka was the best player on the floor and Carlisle was the best coach.

 

Very hard for one-star teams to win these days. Makes what Trae Young has done even more impressive to me.

 

Drama in Dallas!

I'm glad these bums are out of the playoffs.

 

Kawhi was the best player. Defense matters.

 

Let's trade Silas for Carlisle.

 

bro I think CP could stand his ground against KP posting up. I had tore acl just like Kristaps and I see he is playing it safe with one leg jumping and change of direction.. he is done this can't happen at pro level. Every time he didn't have 2 legs take off for a layup/dunk he stopped his penetration for some bullshit pull-up and when he was brave enough to take 2 steps he did it without force at like 30% just so his leg won't hurt. He shouldn't pass rehab tests to pro level playing like that
