Monty might have found something with Lee
All this team needs is a couple of guys who can hit open 3s reliably. Those shots are gonna be there all game. We lost our 2 best at that in the KD deal.

KD at the 5.
At the same point in all three games.

No complaints about FTs tonight!
Clippers are fouling like crazy…I know people are gonna complain, but they’ve been so physical the whole game. Only a few have been quesrionable
This is why I wasn't worried about it in the first half. The whistle always gets tighter in the second half, and the Clippers have to play with desperation and take more risks.

WTF happened after that jumpball?
Both challenges for naught in this game.

Are they going to call these reach in fouls or no?

Ayton better do work on the offensive glass here

Would be great if Ayton knew how to dribble right now.

Gotta say I am impressed with the fight that the Clips have put up. Hard work and effort.

So far he's one behind Paul and Okogie in that stretch

Think Paul technically got 2 on one play haha
Though I’ll say Ayton being out there might’ve helped. They gotta put bodies on Ayton and that frees it up for the others.

His box out directly led to Okogie's but ok...

No good point of attack defenders and no rim protection. Can’t commit to the trap because KD is out there. But trapping him is probably the best strategy

If the Clippers are going to blitz Booker, KD needs to be the release valve in the middle of the floor, not Ayton or Craig.

My goodness Powell can’t miss. He’s been as good in this game as Kawhi

Should be able to get to the rim every possession here. Zero paint protection for the Clippers.

Ayton isn’t getting any direct points, but I think his impact is there. Paul waltzed to the rim because two guys wouldn’t leave him there.
