Jokic gonna pack them boys up on Friday. Clippers had game 1 and game 4 and they straight blew it
It's hard to recover from one blown game in a series, let alone two. They probably should have swept this series and they're down 2-3 heading into game six.

The biggest story is Kawhi has been pretty ordinary besides that incredible game two.

I knew playoff Harden was going to show up, called it at the start of the game :martin:.

Y'know, there needs to be a document or, better yet, a case study on Harden's postseason issues. It's weird because it's a common theme for him where at the start of a series, first 3 or 4 games, he'll play great, but then when the series stretches out to Games 5, 6, and possibly 7, it's like he shrinks and disappears.

It's gotta be a mental thing for him because the instant drop-off after the first 3 (sometimes 4) games of a series is crazy.

I took the under on Harden today and won. I knew he would have a stinker for game 5 knowing his history

Clips' best chance of winning this series is if their bench buries Denver's in the dirt. That's how you beat the Nuggets.

The likelihood that their starters outperform the Nuggets' is a long chance at happening. That's why it can't be overstated just how important Russ' 20 points was last night. He was able to negate Bogi's contributions and nobody else was really doing shyt.

By the time you get to game 5 both teams are locked in to what the other team is doing offensively. Harden can only play one way, control the ball pick and roll with a lob threat big / spam 3's / drive and flop, so once that is "figured out" he has no other recourse. It aint like he going to just come off a screen and shoot 12 freethrow line jumpers or something.
