    Clippers are gonna get swept

    What do u even do from here? Kawhi isn’t a leader, and Paul George is just suspect. The rest of the roster is full of limited frontrunners led by the barking Pat Bev who does nothing but run around fouling anyone within his vicinity and run his mouth.

    I wonder how badly Kawhi wants to play in LA so he can live in SD? Maybe he will go team up with Bron and AD at the MLE

    i agree! I just love that "f*ck you and your plans" mentality,

    Remember peak Rockets? Morey, Capela, Harden, CP3, The whole team, made sure everyone knew they wanted to face the Warriors. Media was clowning the Rockets, but Rockets wanted everyone to know and they didn't care.

    I wanted to inject that into my veins.. I loved it so much

    Whenever Pat Bev tries to get into a fake fight, it never goes well.

    Luka and Kawhi are GOING AT IT! One dude is 6 for 8 fg and the other 6 for 6. Hope they both keep it up... I want to see version 2 of Larry vs Dominique.

    Man... there are some really nice young players in the game. Maybe cause it’s so hard to defend now I don’t know.

    Luka, Trae, Tatum, Morant, Jokic

    hope Rockets land the next one.

    Have to give the Clippers some credit for showing some fight/pride/intensity in this pivotal game 3. They took the Mavs knockout punch early and came back to make this a real battle.

    PG 10-13 fg for 22 points Kawhi 8-9 fg for 18 points. That's 18-22 fg for 40 points! They better keep it up the production while taking more shots because that dude name LUKA is still balling. 26 points on 9 of 15 fg 4-7 from 3.

    Nah. I'm a 'true Rockets fan'.

    And I love Doncic.

    Try again.

    Moving on to real stuff instead of talking utter nonsense.

    Porzingis is absolutely putrid on offense and defense tonight. He's going to cost them the game.

    EDIT: So will the horrendous defensive strategy of leaving the corner wide open. Why teams don't leave the ball in the guys hand at the free throw line extended 3 point mark is beyond me.

    I can't believe how ass Porzingis is.

    He and Luka are supposed to be unstoppable on offense.

    There's a new Playoff P in town. Playoff Porzingis.

    Luka looking to avoid the sweep like his daddy Harden.

    You know you're an emotional diva when DeMarcus Cousins tells you to calm down.

    Great win for the Clippers and more importantly for my entertainment ( i want a game 7). Kawhi (13-17 for 36 pts) and PG (11-18 fg 29 pts) both showed up BIG and were crazy efficient all game.

    Luka still balling. 44 points 9 rebs 9 assists on 15-28 7-13 from 3. Only blemish was his 7-13 FT 5 TOs. Unfortunately the rest of the Mavs starters weren't great... 41 points 6 assists on 15-45 fg...

    The Clippers finally decided to attack Dallas’ poor defense. Also sitting Zuback when Luka is in the game and putting Rondo on Luka was great adjustments by Lue.
