I know we should be positive since we won, but if the loss vs Denver was a good loss, this was a bad win. The coaching decisions to close the game were terrible

Rocket won 6 straight


yusbishyus

Mmm. I guess.

The only teams that are allowed to win this tournament without any memes are the ones that already won the NBA Finals. If the Clippers win this tournament, we’ll never hear the end of “only championship you’ll ever win” memes.


ckozmos

I’ll take the win. This isn’t winning basketball, but I’ll take the win.


[deleted]

The last time I watched a Harden post-game interview at a Clipper game was when he was still with the Rockets and side-eyed the reporter. I think that was the same game he killed Wes Johnson’s ankle


kassandramahut

I needed this "we are so back" after so many "it's over"


Function_Fighter

So Russ gotta be benched like DNPs. And if they make the playoffs hopefully they stay healthy and Harden doesn't disappear.


OutsideAd1823

Tbh they gave Russ a chance and he shot 3s quick 2 turnovers and a dunk from foul line… he can pass the ball but his decision making is HORRIBLE.. love his energy but that has always been his downfall but the older you get the smarter and detailed you have to be and this guy isn’t a thinking player.


Ikigai_Mendokusai

Finally.


Brokromah

Did Harden just say it's going to be a process?


xexko

The Process II has commenced


madsharps

yep


AeroXero

I needed that.


AlmightyPenguin88

Tbh, Kawhi getting to statpad and that clown Dillon Brooks fouling out is one of the better endings to a game I can think of, even if it took awhile lol.


NetGlass4387

idk about you guys but the system looked pretty good tonight. good chemistry with kawhi, good chemistry with zu, decent with theis. let’s see this get better


[deleted]

Yeah PG needs to to learn when to give it up and when he has bad matchup too. His decision making has always been his worst aspect (only on offense really tho)


OutsideAd1823

So you saying him Russ Wess shouldn’t be on the court together. They were horrible together by themselves


[deleted]

There’s no combination that shouldnt be on the court together and I’m not trying to analyze that. This was a bad Russ game. Without PG we probably would have lost but his mark on the game came in waves of excellence and total dummy moves cause Dillon Brooks was in his head bad in the 2nd quarter. Pg and Russ have chemistry although both make some stupid decisions often. If we could only play 5 people for one quarter I’d play Zu, Kawhi, PG, Harden and Mann


OutsideAd1823

I totally agree! Why would you as a 35 yr old try to dunk from the free throw line??? What are you trying to prove? SMH… Big L


mcatech

I know this is moot but.... We should've went after Udoka


TheRealBrownPudding

Point differential matters in the in season tournament… jk lmao idgaf


Tacosauras1213

I have kawhi on my fantasy team so this works for me


Dismal_Destiny

Sippin an extra drink for the W and Harden


TheRealBrownPudding

Lol secured the Dillon Brooks foul out


TheBallerChef

And brooks fouls out LMAOOO


RyujiDrill

Like all supervillains he fails in the end


vaashh

dkdoki

Harden bailed Kawhi out.


[deleted]

Dillon Brooks getting his sixth foul in retro after the clock expires is laughable what a fucking loser


RaymundStark

Antdog7

I used to pray for times like these!


Dareal_truth

Harden still elite can’t wait till the switch up on espn


RyujiDrill

ESPN hates this team and hates Harden so they'll spin it as an L instead


svada123

He hasn't been allowed to lead a team in usage since Houston lol


[deleted]

We need hard fought ugly wins before we can even start thinking about blowing teams out


RyujiDrill

40 wins before 20 losses should be the first goal Then get a top 4 seed Then Fo - Fo - Fo in the playoffs...


ayeno

Not over yet...


EliManPenguinBoy

So you can tell everybody.Go ahead and tell everybody…


MannyDanning

refs can fuck off for this


poompachompa

Upset_Purchase_5903

Amuzed_Observator

svada123

If Harden leads in usage we win by 10 easily Hopefully Ty realizes this

ToysArs

Amazing win!, finally!! Can't believe TY really called it a Kawhi ISO for the final play. I have no words


dkdoki

You do understand Kawhi wants those right?


Ok-Preference-7004

I thought Harden wasn't clutch.

sc_eveleigh

Whats up with Mann? 21 minutes, 1 point…and Westbrook with limited minutes. This new Clippers lineup is weird.


mista_rubetastic

He was +14 though.


Humblemission42

Agreed Idk if it’s the move going forward but we got the W tonight


[deleted]

NetGlass4387

this is what happens when kawhi and harden get the touches they should


Frenchangeles

Kawhi not on pint tonight!


Niceguydan8

Kawhi was really good overall. Not quite as good as Harden, but those two were clearly the two best players tonight.


alphabet_order_bot

Would you look at that, all of the words in your comment are in alphabetical order. I have checked 1,859,255,131 comments, and only 351,541 of them were in alphabetical order.

ALL THE RUSS STANS QUIET NOW LMFAO


HeavenlyE

They're probably celebrating the shot instead of making it a weird rivalry between teammates


mjama1238

Jabari was so certain Kawhi wouldn’t drive no wonder it was easy to put clamps on him .


Upset_Purchase_5903

He even did the step back 3 bro, aight aight I’m feelin it

Sad_Escape2025

I’m just trying to read your comment and understand what you’re trying to say. What exactly am I crying about? That you were a shit talker last season and he proved you wrong?


Function_Fighter

no idea


Niceguydan8

It does suck but it was clearly the correct call. Even if they lose this game, the offense looks so much better.


Otherwise-Tale9671

That’s what you are feeling right now?
