Seems like the Clippers have won 2 halves in this series and that’s what has kept them in it. If the Mavs would have had even just subpar halves in those games, this would be over. 

damn Sunday afternoon games.  thankfully those are done.  let's just close this out on Friday night and not worry about a Sunday (night) game.

I always kind of liked the idea of the Clippers being really good, and I like that they're getting a new arena. But man, Westbrook and Harden, I truly hate them both.

[ITHorn 801]

It would be nice to get the three days rest by closing out things at home Friday night. Don't really like the idea of pretty much heading straight to OKC from LA after finishing up a 7 game series.

I realize its hard to have 3 shot dominate guys but 14 pts in 6 minutes Hardy makes me think wtf??????    

He should definitely get minutes like the few minutes before the end of the half timeout where neither Luka nor Kyrie were in the game.

His defense keeps him off the court. I wouldn't want the other team to go on a run into the half.

My son mived to Dallas last week. Bought tickets to tonight’s game 19 living his best life. 

[RexWilson 1348]

I like that Kyrie constantly points out Harden’s bullshit to the refs. Just wish the refs would do something about it. 

[Sgt Hulk 13870]

After landing like that I’d be in traction for a year 

[RexWilson 1348]

OMG that Lively fall looked so painfully awkward 

[dcar00 14382]

get to the bucket.  fuck.

Luka heard you. And one

[Sgt Hulk 13870]

It’s loud I love it 

My kid said it’s deafening when the 3 dropped

[dcar00 14382]

the clippers don't want to play D.  I know we have to shoot some threes but if we just go to the bucket we win by double digits.

[ITHorn 801]

If Harden isn’t hitting that floater this is going to be a long night for Clippers. Solid perimeter defense outside of PJ not rotating on PG once. 

[Bozo_Casanova 26581]

Fuck that looked very bad

[RexWilson 1348]

That’s not good

[Sgt Hulk 13870]

Shoukder.  Fu k

it looked like he was grabbing his ribs to me

[RexWilson 1348]

Maxi finally been hitting the 3 consistently and this shit happens.

That was definitely the ribs. Falling with an outstretched arm like that can def leave you with a rib injury. The biggest pain in the ass is that it hurts during inspiration. They tend to heal quickly though.

[Bozo_Casanova 26581]

What a pass, WOOOOWWWW

[RexWilson 1348]

Let’s turn this in to a Suns game 7 route type game. 

[RexWilson 1348]

 

[Pato del Muerto 52636]

Looking at the replay of the injury, how is that any different than undercutting a player?  Moved his arms outward to take his legs out from under him,

Called it   he landed hard on that sucker 

[ITHorn 801]

If that’s a foul Terrance Mann commits 15 a game. 

[Sgt Hulk 13870]

Fuck these refs

[dcar00 14382]

announcer is an idiot.  you can't see any contact.

[Sgt Hulk 13870]

Ray Charles thinks you’re fucking blind 

[Bozo_Casanova 26581]

That’s wasn’t a foul Paul George when he body checked Luka but that IS a foul on Jones when he performs reiki on Harden? 
Mavs need to boatrace these motherfuckers and shove it up the league’s ass. 

[dcar00 14382]

that is such bullshit.  Luka gets fouled 20 times a game then.

[Firemans4Horn 18132]

Luka needs to be shooting the 5 footers instead of passing. Two turnovers already by forcing unnecessary passes. 

[Bozo_Casanova 26581]

THIS IS BULLSHITTTT

[dcar00 14382]

these refs are abysmal...the NBA is hard to watch.

[Sawbonz 27654]

Fuck these refs

he and Kyrie suck ass.  Luka needs to get his shit together at halftime.

[Firemans4Horn 18132]

I rarely watch basketball because of how bad the officiating is. 

Doncic is playing terribly

[dcar00 14382]

Luka is going to single handedly lose this game..

[Firemans4Horn 18132]

Clippers shooting layups all quarter. Mavs bricking 3’s and turning it over left and right.

Doncic is playing very well. He’s shooting threes poorly as he has for the entire series because his legs are dead

[RexWilson 1348]

Luka has had success attacking the paint/bucket. Stop the 3s and get to the hole.

Luka and Kyrie are 6-21. If your legs are dead don’t shoot 7 3 pointers in one half (and miss all 7).

he also has 3 TO's.  he's shooting FT's well...when he goes to the hole.

Which 25 year old Mavs Twitter chick are you? Can I get a follow back?

[Bozo_Casanova 26581]

Daniel Gafford channeling Larry Johnson there

[RexWilson 1348]

Keep the uptempo pace

[Firemans4Horn 18132]

Gafford was such a good pickup. 

[ITHorn 801]

Elimination game Kyrie is absolutely as good as advertised. 

[Firemans4Horn 18132]

Maybe make some free throws?

[Firemans4Horn 18132]

Calm down Luka.
