He's played pretty well this entire series (3games). You can post his sloppy turnover gifs if you want but the numbers don't lie.

Yeah, I think we just got the "Monty Williams" version of Rivers.

He played against them in the same conference :lol for give the man his due. He is clearly playing a lot better in the Clippers system.

Nah. He's basically played about the same since the trade. In the playoffs, he has gotten hot for a few games. He did this in New Orleans a few times and people were ready to anoint him then too.

He took mostly the same terrible shots he always takes last night. They went in. Congrats to him. I'd be shocked if it is sustainable.

Yeah he started this season really well for about ten games and everyone thought he had turned a corner, then he was terrible again. Unless he all of the sudden learned how to consistently shoot jumpshots and finish at the rim then this is just a fluke

I mean he just played a 7 game series vs SAS where he only had 1 good game. Someone is going to pay Austin good money over the summer.

It was just odd hearing his name chanted. Who does this? Sounded like a wrestling crowd.

He has always had that one good game every 20 games. Don't expect much from him the rest of the lmayoffs

Austin Rivers has been arse for the Clippers bro. 3 good games in the playoffs doesnt change that.

Good for Austin, but let's not act like we shouldn't have made that deal. Would you take him back and get rid of Q? No way. Q was huge for us down the stretch and fills a much bigger need going forward. Sometimes trades work out for all parties involved (although we didn't trade Austin directly to LA). This seems to be one of them.

I've seen every Clippers game this year and that's simply not true. He has been a big upgrade over Jordan Farmar. He has actually played pretty well for us and has gotten a little batter each game.
