Harden smiling with Kyrie. These dudes are not serious.
Good luck whoever pays Harden this off-season.

It's on espn.com today, Clippers want PG and Harden back regardless of what happens in this series. Ballmer does not believe in rebuilding.
If you think about it though if they let them both walk they're screwed even worse. They have no draft picks, and no one is coming to join old broken down Kawhi.

This crowd is nuts. I’m worried they’ll be gassed by mid 3rd quarter.

Less about not believing in rebuilding, more about the fact that they really can't without pick control and this new Bernie Sanders type CBA preventing the owners wealth being an asset

I don’t know if PG wants to come back. Harden maybe because if he leaves his legacy will be in complete shambles, if that’s something he cares about.

The only way anyone else getting a shot on Mavs getting a shot is if Luka gets trapped or they get the rebound. Luka in Kobe mode right now -

We gonna see some classic exit game Harden stats in this one? Wouldn’t shock me. 5-18, 5 turnovers, that kinda crap.

They won’t. Question for the Clippers is if they can avoid the blowout loss in this guaranteed win for Dallas.

Well George is from L.A. and his mother is in a wheelchair and can't travel to games. I heard that might be a factor in him staying.
I think he cares more about phat checks than winning a championship, him and Harden.

if Dallas go trough, I can see the série against OKC being much easier than this one only because of OKC having nowhere near a center as painful for Mavs as Zubac

Maybe it is always this way but this year I feel like the most truly cooked players are getting meaningful minutes in playoff games. Gallo,Morris, Tucker. Etc. Is it just a function of these asset poor tax teams being forced to scrap the bottom of the barrel even more than usual.
When will we just change the name of 25 of the 30 teams to the Washington Generals?
Please advise….

Harden and Pg are better versions of Beal…

Paul George calling for screens to get minimum player, Derrick Jones Jr, off of him. Pathetic.
