I'm a big Luke and Mavs fan, but imagine a comeback? Would be one of the most miraculous games we've ever seen. 

Lead cut down to 46 approaching the end of the 3rd, comeback is on!

luka is making the clippers look really bad

And we all know the clippers aren’t this bad. Luka is just really really good


The west is tough no wonder harden wants to move anywhere in the east lol

Gotta love the Clippers broadcasters saying this Mavs team is a "first round playoff team" when if Kristaps was healthy the Mavs would have bounced the Clippers last year, and they're currently receiving a historic beatdown

The Clips have some big problems.

Yup, this is more than just missing Kawhi.

Ty Lue might not be the answer

Game 3.   Like the C’s they aren’t yet who they’ll be.

You’re right. Whoever is clicking and healthy at the end of the year usually wins the championship. Those 08 Celtics just crashed through the regular season but they had all those extended series in the east that were really tough. Hawks, Cavs, Pistons and by the time they got to the Lakers they were locked.

[Who]

Spurs starting 4 guards and Aldridge at center. DeRozan is their 2nd biggest starter.

EDIT:  Wrong thread.

Watching a little nets hornets and I’m like why did we get rid of Terry rozier ?? He’s been outstanding offensively

[Moranis]

Cavs aren't terrible.  2-0 and up 14 on the 2-0 Sixers at half time and Okoro isn't even playing today.  The young guards aren't great defensively, but sure can put it in the hoop and the Drummond/Love front line is actually working (they started Nance with them today so they went huge). 

[MattyIce]

hornets up 13 on the nets, GH with 28/5/6 a few minutes into the 4th

[Phantom255x]

I really don't see it with LaMelo. Guy just seems really average for a Top-3 pick.

I really like their back-court. Small, but small has worked for Toronto and Washington recently

After watching the hornets nets game I don’t think I’m as scared of the nets (keep changing opinion lol)
But Terry , PJ and Bizmark played them very physical even choppy and it seemed to work despite Kyrie making ridiculous shots
So maybe the recipe against the nets in the playoffs is to be chilly and physical

Honestly just give it some time. KD and Irving are talented, but also sensitive. When the Nets have some tough stretches during the season, it'll be interesting to see how they both respond and play.
