That missed alley oop from Washington was so so bad.

Gafford going out really hurt them. They're lucky Kawhi has been rusty as hell or this wouldnt be close

Refs are letting Clippers play super aggressive and do whatever they want. Dallas catching quick whistles on touch fouls. NBA officiating is so inconsistent.

I also think that it's real dumb that the way the game is called COMPLETELY changes in the name of "playoff basketball". If playoff basketball is the goal of what the NBA wants basketball to be, it should be officiated this way all year long. Game is completely different right now across pretty much every series in the league.

Dallas trying to blow this with some terrible offense with 3 minutes left.

Luka bad shot at end of clock. Offensive rebound. Kyrie bad shot at end of clock. No passes on either possession. Next possession, Luke bad shot at end of possession. Move the bal justt a little bit and game becomes easier.

Then as I type that out Luka hits a stepback in my face at the end of the shot clock

Going to be big if Dallas can hang on. They have yet to shoot well this series, and Luka has yet to shoot well himself. Dallas has defended really well tonight.

To NWLA’s point, it’s been awful tonight. Officials calling it completely different for both teams. Dallas getting screwed by officials IMHO.

I don’t think there has been a single possession in the second half of Mavs Clippers that someone hasn’t bitched at the refs. It’s ridiculous.

I didn't realize how damn tough LA was on defense but it makes sense. Kawhi always been like that. PG is long lanky and super athletic. Russ super athletic and a hustler. Harden, when he is actually playing defense, isn't terrible. His defense now is noticeably better than with HOU or PHI when he got shite on so much. A super physical big in Zubac. Good defenders in Mann and Coffey.


The fact that Russ just straight pushed somebody and it's not called. Laughable shite in this game.

Hasn't been many possessions they didn't miss something completely obvious by today's standards. You let guys get used to getting those calls for 82 games and all of a sudden now they're back in the 90s.

Somehow my computer thought lanky and nakedly were basically the same thing

That was an atrocious defensive possession from the Mavs

Kyrie with a completely idiotic foul. Kawhi had leverage and a couple steps on him. Need to give it up there.

Well no foul. It did look like Kyrie got his arm to me.

Not to mention when they let Harden walk into a 3 unguarded for a 3 with like 1:30 left. Defense has fell apart after getting the lead up to 9

playoff basketball gets stupid really fricking fast

the balls on Luka conventional wisdom says throw that in the air into the front court, worst case scenario isn’t a TO right in front of the basket
