NBA 2019-2020

Morris is such a fecking whiny cnut. Should honestly be suspended for a game after his behavior this series.
 
think this is it for the Mavs :( their shooting is off today and with their defence that cant happen.
 
Doncic is clearly bothered by his bum ankle, and still the only one getting things done for the Mavs.

Unfortunately I don't think Utah (or Denver) will pose a bigger threat than the Mavs to the Clippers in the semis.
 
Kawhi completely took over in the second half. Such an absurd player
 
Basically nobody but doncic can hit the side of a barn for the mavs today
 
Porzingis's ejection and bum ass knee prevented this from going to 7
Feels that way. Doncic has been incredible in the series, going toe-to-toe with Kawhi. This quarter was basically Kawhi taking over and putting the mavs in the trash, followed by Luka saying actually we're not done yet thank you very much

31/7/7 for Luka. 25/12/6 for Kawhi. Doncic's been double teamed 50 feet from the basket the whole game

Boban to the rescue!

Make that 34/8/8
 
I mean Luka has 34 points on one ankle. Only one other Mavs player in double digit points and it's only a 6 point game in the 4th? Talk about carrying your team on your back.
 
Kawhi is not gonna be amused with George if he doesn’t severely up his game in the next round. Had to do it all by himself tonight.

Nah, PG shot poorly, true, but he made plenty of big plays at both ends of the court tonight. He was good
 
Heard a sports radio host chatting about Luka and they were thinking of who in the past does he remind them of.

Pistol Pete was the one they all agreed on. A modern day version with more athleticism and bulk.
 
Jazz-Nuggets goes to game 7. Has been a ridiculous series, with Mitchell and Murray just looking like they can do anything they want, and both going nuts in every fourth quarter. Murray was 9-12 from 3 tonight, Mitchell was 9-13. Just wow.

I don't see that at all. Maravich was a far superior shooter then Luka is and had a far superior ball handling ability as well.

The Larry Bird comparison I see a lot I guess can kind of fly albeit he is a worse shooter then bird but IMO I don't see Pistol Pete in Luka
 
Jamal Murray and Mitchell have been unreal.

That was a legit shootout, both hitting ridiculous shots back and forth nonstop.

Both of them have been ice cold which should set up for a fantastic game 7.
 
Shame that Game 7 is in the middle of the night over here. Will try to get up and watch it though.

I hope Denver goes through because I think they have a better chance against the Clippers.

I'm to lazy too look it up but I think Clippers handled them very well in the regular season?
Whoever it is, Utah or Denver I think they wont have it as hard as against the Mavs.

Denver won the first meeting, Clippers the second and then the third in the bubble. Don't know in which games that Leonard played though. The Jazz won 2 out of 3 against the Clippers in the regular season but haven't played them in the bubble.

Agree that the Clippers will have it easier against either one of them than against Dallas. Vice versa for the Lakers, if they get the Rockets I can see that series going to 6.

Me too, Lakers in 6 imo.

Denver won 3 games against Utah in the regular season as well i think, yet look at them now.
 
Jazz with Bogdanovic and home court in a play-off is completely different (damn hard to grab the game in Utah). Think they would be much harder to go against under those conditions for every team, not just Clippers. This way, Denver will probably be a tougher matchup.

Don't agree with easier than Mavs either way though. I mean Porzingis was out and Doncic had a bad ankle without much support. If PG don't up his game, it will be close.
 
Nuggets if Murray remains this hot and Jokic shows up could give them a tough series. Don't see it with the Jazz honestly. They can just do to Mitchell what they did to Luka in game 6 and the Jazz are even less equipped than the short-handed Mavs to overcome that, unless Conley has a monster series. Neither team has a prayer of stopping Kawhi at the other hand either, though the Nuggets at least have a bunch of wings with the size and athleticism to try, though their team defence is worse than the Jazz's

Yeah, PG was forcing it again yesterday, started brightly but fell of after it. Mavs coming back from -20 was a lot down to his forcing it.
 
32-10-5-2 playoff numbers so far without an actual super flashy game to pad that statline. Kawhi's crazy consistent and doesn't overly get fazed then starts to 'force' it. Theres no way you can take him out of the top 5.

Fat boye is averaging something along the lines of 25/8/5 for the series i think.
