  1. Slooo your roll…. Mavs shot 11% 3s in a 30 point 1st Half, Clips.shot 60 % with 56 pts??? How many times you think that will happen again????? Thank you. Rust after sitting out 2 games and One week off big mistake. We'll see if Harden, Pandemic P are as good in Game 2 and Lively will cancel out Zu Tuesday. Easy to be tough when you up.

  2. If we can play how we did vs the Suns and Denver in the end of the season, we should be able to reach the finals, Nobody is as locked in on D then us, we got PG, Kawhi Russ and T mann on D, and that pressure really seems to get at players, just look at KD and Book or Jokic, and now Kyrie and Luka feeling that pressure too, 2nd round I don’t think Minnesota has that dawg in them to combat our pressure, and the way we go at people offensively is crazy, A lot to do with veteran players like PG, Harden and Russ, these guys literally said “Do you know who tf we are” and Russ is very well at that, as we seen vs the suns when he had his TD, if we keep that same energy we will be a force, Let’s keep playing like how we did from that Suns game

  3. Let's gooooo! Talk that Ish Darian!!! If we can get the same energy outta Zu and Harden these playoffs, we in good hands playaz! Good preparation Ty & Staff.. #ClipNation

  4. A. We won a Sunday afternoon game. B. We held a lead. C. We won without Kawhi. D. Clipper fans actually made noise throughout game.

  5. Who else found it hilarious how bad gafford played in defense after all the trash talk the past week from the mavs fans ? 😂😂

    It got to a point where I WANTED gafford to get switched onto harden or zubac because he couldn’t guard anyone.

    As I’ve been saying, as long as we have James harden with at least one star, he can carry us until the end. I’m not sure why the Mavs put Luka on harden because he got blown by basically every time. They are likely going to start doubling him heavily, especially if kawhi doesn’t play next game. I am so happy to see harden show the clippers fans what they will be used to in the coming years. We are winning the chip and running it back ! Let’s go clippers !

  6. The excuses from the media regarding the Mavs is pathetic, but I'm enjoying it, keep underestimating the Clips PLEASE. I'm not predicting anything but we get Kawhi back tomorrow…..and we seem to play even better on the road.

  7. This game got a little chippy and I like it. One incident with Westbrook and the other with Zubac.

  8. Great win for the boys without my guy Kawhi. Hope he comes back strong. I know we've beat them twice in the post season already but I think we can make it even more comfortable if we use Zu offensively! He was massive last night and during that run. Want to see more from Amir as he was pivotal during that run too but played solid D last night!

  9. Zu and Harden carried the load while PG was getting his ish together, he was massive in final quarter. When we are going through those offensive slumps we need to go more to Zu – guy is money in the paint man – easy buckets!

  10. PG's impact doesn't fully show up in the box score. They only allowed him play 1v1 a couple times, it was mostly doubles all game.
    Coach was phenomenal with the timeouts & set plays. We have to get PG in that midrange iso triple threat more often, he is stupidly dangerous in that situation (like Kawhi) but it's not utilized enough.

  11. I told yall they are NOT cut like that….. these sports shows saying maverick tha best team in tha league causes of that run they had…. like we didn't do same thing but better…. like we beat tha top teams in our run OKC, Denver, Boston just to say a few…. who they beat in they run Houston, San Antonio??? I'm not saying they not good I'm just saying they not cut like us at all.. even that lil run they had nobody said oh Denver better watch out this team is tha only team in tha west that can beat Denver nobody!!! Said that you know why?? Cause they Are NOT cut like that…. even if they could beat us and make it to wcf and Denver there do you really think they beating Denver? No you don't.. but if we make it it's I don't know…. cause we are cut different

  12. I got moved to the second row right behind Mark Cuban. I lost my mind, and then I had my friends there too. Dream come true, haha I never thought I'd sit on the floor for the playoffs, where we DOMINATED the Mavericks!

  13. Clipper Nation!! The Clippers are a team of destiny!! No disrespect to the Mavs but they are overrated and they know it. It surprises me people get mislead. Remember “the new economy is psychology.” Yesterday when I saw Cuban and Lukas reaction they were like we are fkd. That said it all!! Don’t get me wrong Luka and Irving are warriors and they will fight to the end but the role players don’t have experience and are not at the basketball level of the Clips. Yes they dominated the 2nd half and it can start raising levels of concern. But that’s why Ty “Bad Ass” Lue was fkn pist and nervous as hell but he made the right adjustments to shut down momentum. In regard to Kawhi “Sugar Ray” Leonard as the Terminator would say “I will be back!!” The Clips knew they weren’t getting the number 1 seed so they started to make sure they started preparing their secret 🤫 weapon for deployment!! Seeing Steve Ballmer with that adrenaline rush was a wholesome moment bc he has put his all effort on this team. What he did for the fans on the last regular season game was a classic!! Just like Microsoft it’s about to pay 💰 dividends…………. 🎤 #themarothoncontinuesNipseyHustle #alotofrespecttothebighomieDarian4hisdevotiontoclippernation

  14. much respect to the clippers in all seriousness. now that harden is expected to keep dropping 30…. let’s see if he keeps it up 😈

  15. I don’t know….. is Gafford, PJ, and DJJ really better ‘help’ than Porzingis, DFS, and 2021 Hardaway Jr??

    Got me thinking about how narratives can catch such momentum

  16. Here's the truth! We got the better roster and the better coach even without the claw
    And yes I'm very very confident and I still have to give Dallas a puncher's chance because of their two stars, but the rest of their Supporting Cast it's not on the same level as the Clippers. I think our teams on the same level as Denver,Celtics,T-Wolves and I think when we're locked in like this and what's at stake with our coach we got a chance to go all the way I've been watching the Clippers since 1979 this is the best roster ever assembled and coach❤

  17. There's one guy from the Mavericks, the Clippers can't forget about. Tim Hardaway Jr. The Clippers can't let him drop 20 + points the next game. Otherwise that's 25 + to add to Kiarie and Luka 35+ each that's will be dangerous for the Clippers.

  18. Don’t expect us to have a 8 point quarter again. Y’all have the more experienced team and half of our team hasn’t played in the playoffs. Keep this energy the whole series

  19. This clipper players have a ton of playoff experience. We were tough. We blitzed Dallas defensively. Played mind games. Hard fouls from Coffey, mann, and Russ. Elbows from Zu. This Dallas team is young. I don’t see luka maintaining composure throughout the series. He never has against us. He’ll go off and leave his team astray.

  20. Lue looked like Kidd's daddy that game….
    Mavs shot 9% in Q2 no typo – stellar D and the ZuHar P&R was most of what it took to skunk them easily w/o Kawhi
