  1. Kawhi can carry a team in playoffs even he had no superstar team mate unlike other superstar player like lebron,kd,steph

  2. Russell westbrooks revenge tour. Let him take out all his former teammates, KD, Chris Paul, Bron.

  3. Crazy how the same people talking good about Russ now were the same people talking crazy about him when he was a laker . Keep the same energy.

  4. Westbrook's defense vs KD has been good for years. His perimeter defense has been absolutely outstanding all year. Kawhi sensational and Clippers too deep and too solid on D, even without Paul George.

    Offensive balance, spacing and taking care of the ball will be keys in this series. That's why Gordon, Batum and Mann are the x-factors to me in this series. Gordon vs Booker was a defensive issue. On offense, EG carried in the 1st. Then didn't get the ball in good position, often late in the clock and the offense turned stagnant with him, his rhythm got lost (1-7 after the 1st). Ultimately hit the last 3 which was absolutely huge but Clippers can do a LOT better on the offensive end. If they do, it'll lift Westbrook's efficiency as it has done in his Clippers tenure. If not this series could go the other way.

  5. Suns fans were all cocky talking about sweep like you are not a group of chokers😂. Clippers in 6. Kawhi is clearly the best player in this series

  6. Suns are full of entitled babies. Clips will be heroes when they knock them off in the first round

  7. How come no one mentions Clippers owner Steve Ballmer? He’s like a big goofy, old kid with unlimited passion. Ballmer and Cuban are the most passionate major sports franchise owner. I would like to play under them if I'm in the NBA.

  8. Binastos ni westbrook si booker sa pag block sa crucial shot parang sinabi ni westbrook kay booker.. your too young in this league 😂😂😂😂 this is my house (playoffs) kase kong di nasupalpal yun habol yun at babalik pa posisyon nun sa sun talo pa clippers sana
