All right, quickly, since it's fresh, I just want to get some takes off, but the Clippers game last night, it was a really, really bad loss for them, and I just wanted to sort of comment on it just to maybe either ease the burden for Clippers fans or make it worse. I guess we'll find out
0:14
So first of all, no Kawhi Leonard was super detrimental for them on both sides of the ball
0:19
They had no primary matchup for Luka Doncic, and he cooked them in every single pick and roll
0:23
and every single single-man coverage. So that was really bad. And they also just didn't have enough isolation scoring because Paul Jordan and James Harden were so bad
0:32
And this also brings me to my next point, which is that when James Harden's off the court
0:35
this team just has no structure in its offense because of the lack of playmaking
0:40
Russell Westbrook wasn't doing shit for them tonight and wasn't being guarded at all on offense
0:43
and Paul George was taking a bunch of stupid, bad, over-contested shots
0:48
Norman Powell was good, though. But Norman Powell is not going to win you a playoff series
0:51
especially when the Mavericks are totally outpacing them and running them out of the gym with their speed
0:56
So yeah, it's not looking good for the Clippers in Game 6
