He was a bonafide 3rd wheel tonight. I don’t know what you were watching all night. 

I was watching him miss gimme shots and generally being a fuck up. He stepped up at the end hence why I posted “Shut me up then PJ”. He still played like ass the first half.

Maxi can be frustrating offensively sometimes, but he is an absolute animal and has proven over and over he is not afraid of big moments. It is so satisfying watching him frustrate the shit out of Leonard.

I cussed PJ on my text chain as well at a point where we had nobody but Luka/Kyrie in double digits, then I think he made like 4 straight shots so you all weren't the only ones.  They clearly need him to win this series and he came up big on O down the stretch (and yes, great D throughout).

Maxi’s defense keeps him on the court. People don’t realize this. The 3s tonight were absolutely huge, both of them.

On a good defensive night where the two star players helped set the tone, Maxi had the best defensive per attempt at 3 for 17.

Luka 6/18 and Kyrie sub 10 points and... winning? Amazing game for this team so far. Need the stars to close (which kyrie is starting to)

Westbrook should be a Flagrant II + ejection. That’s real obvious. A classic meltdown from a classic head case. 
Agreed. They just chucked a Suns player for a less egregious foul.

You would think that after this many years in the league, Westbrook would have finally figured out that "playoff intensity" doesn't mean increasing your scowl and amping up the histrionics and fake tough guy bullshit. 

In a way it makes me mad because I think he could have been a great player, but he's just too stupid and mentally weak to get there.

It’s nice to face him and playoff P on the same team.

My knucklehead son scored a ticket right behind Gafford

It's better with context. T. Mann taking offense to Washington scowling/talking to the Clippers bench after a Mavericks bucket comes across the court continuing to tryi to get him to understand.

Washington eventually turns back towards the opponents bench, takes stance at half court, dares anybody by crossing his arms, and scowls at their bench to do something about it.

Game was so great, and Luka didn’t play well at all, and Ky did nothing in the first half. So I hope the “this bench is shit” bullshit is over. Gafford and PJ were huge pickups and DJJ is a nice player. I know those guys are starters but the implication has been this team is nothing with Luka and Ky. Lively was an absolute beast in the first half (where was he in 2nd?) and Josh Green played well. 

 

You didn't say nice anything about TH jr.

Fake tough guy with one point, which means not tough, just a bitch who hates that he sucks. 

So the Clips are OKc retirement home? Westbrook, Beard, and Paul George. Good in KD for not going that sad route.

That was such a fun game last night.  Didn't even play well offensively but completely dismantled them.  The Clippers looked lost in the 2nd half.  They made that one run to cut it to 6 or 7 then Kyrie, who hadn't done anything all game with foul trouble, puts up 8 straight.  Great W.

Kyrie's ability to plant his feet in the ground and say "that's enough" when the other team is on a run is amazing. I've never seen anyone do what he does. Completely disengaged on the offensive end for 3 quarters then suddenly bends the game to his will.
