He's so explosive, that's what really stands out for me. The fact that Russell's 34 years old & on his 15th season in the NBA is insane, he hasn't lost his speed one bit
I wish both PG and the klaw can play again hopefully this year does not end up like 2021 when only PG could play but we could not beat the suns to get to the finals without the klaw when he was injured
I wouldn't count out Clips. Look what they did against full effort full lineup Suns. Lue has to stay confident. Dial the D on Book, add one of the fast youngsters on Book maybe 7 minutes, that game is Clippers W.
RW was outstanding! Norman was red hot and great, too with his 42! We all know that the Suns are a powerful team, but nobody gave up, everybody came to play hard. The Suns were very lucky to win this game. A break or two here and there and they would be DOWN 2 games to 1.
Clippers are deep. The defensive lapses on Booker can be repaired. Russ, Powell and Zu are very harmonious. Just need to keep getting guys in rotation to spread that harmony. Suns' starters burning the minutes. Clamp on Book, and this series is completely different.
See the coaching difference? The Laker's moronic fake coach Hamburger is a complete fiasco whereas Ty who is a little dude with excellent coaching savvy can easily get the best out of Westbrook. This game is a tangible proof.
I have to agree. The coaching factor has to be part of the discussion. Ty is getting it done. Ham was not. Ham was probably spending too much time trying to kiss up to you know who and please him.
WestBrook!!! Slam on this niggas... one time for me!!!! I understand you passion for the game...I don't have access to all of the games yet!!! There are certain networks...stilll...blocking me, but I'm working on it tho. No pressure... over here homie!!! I just want to see you... be you...when the time is right...
Let's be honest and not be delusional. This series is over since we found out Kawhi was out with the knee injury. It's unfortunate for Russell and the rest of the team to battle without their future hall of famers. Clippers were battling and balling; however, it's way too much of a hill to climb. I can trust Russell to be playing the majority of the season and playoffs. Moreover, it seems that trust can't be said for Kawhi and Paul, unfortunately. Another season wasted from injuries. God bless America
Clippers meanwhile know they can beat the Suns. That's half the battle. I'm not counting Clippers out. They are a better team than the Suns. Especially since Westbrook arrived.
Play both! Go small.... Cut either Zu or Plum from the rotation for this series. Morris, Covington, Batum, Powell, and Russ have to be the starters! Zu, Mann, EG, and Bones as the reserves with the 4 minutes shared by the 3 wings that are available... Definitely do no start Zu! It is not helping! The team needs points from the starting unit and Zu isn't talented enough to be featured inside.... Put the pressure on Mann, Bones, and EG to give the 2nd unit great production.... Between Morris, Covington, Powell, and Russ the team should be able to get close to 80-85 pts from the starters. If they can bring The Suns group back down to 100 pts, that's only about a -15 Much easier to overcome when the bench on avg is a +20 or more... It adds up to about a +5 for The Clippers as a team. There is no other path to staying close to The Clippers when their starters are scoring 100+ per game. You have to be within 10-15 pts of that to even have a possibility of staying close. Zu, Batum, and EG simply don't score enough or defend at a high enough level to keep starting all 3 of them without Kawhi and PG....
@@sammyslam1 Um, no. Pay attention. Clippers riding leads in first half. So it's not Zu. Covington having trouble because Suns scoring with Durant mostly contained. Covington can't D up Durant or Book. So Powell and Mann getting the small forward minutes. Tell Covington's girlfriend she is embarrassing her boyfriend. This Kardashian campaign is fruity as _ uk. Lue will play Covington when matchups fit. That's it.
I wondered why RoCo didn't play much, too. I don't get that. He's a "wild card" type player. If he is "on," he is unstoppable. He also plays a good floor game.
Kawhi is not playing again and this is not the only playoff where he left the team when obvously they have a shot at winning. Can the management trade him instead
Bruh Westbrook has been such a beast this series if only Kawhi n PG we’re healthy this series
I think the Clippers also need another big man who can score outside the paint. This is a significant weakness.
@@tabletalk33they had roco
Russ, I'm proud of you, sir 🙏
If kawhi & PG were playing alongside Westbrook we would probably sweep the suns and I'm not even kidding
I’ve been saying this, it would be 3-0 rn. Russ has to switch between guarding CP, Book, & KD every other possession.
Russell Westbrook is literally a superstar player still, Steve ballmer u better pay that man what he's worth!!!
I approve this message
8 million ☠️ he needs more
He's so explosive, that's what really stands out for me. The fact that Russell's 34 years old & on his 15th season in the NBA is insane, he hasn't lost his speed one bit
Lebron played his best games in his 15th season too. He's not too old yet
I wish both PG and the klaw can play again hopefully this year does not end up like 2021 when only PG could play but we could not beat the suns to get to the finals without the klaw when he was injured
I forgot same thing happened last year 😂😂😢🙃😭

Zubac is killing the Clippers by not closing aggressively on Midrange shots , and him bobbling passes.
Zubac is playing terrible bro 😂
A shame Kawhi was ruled out due to Injury. Had he played this game, we would've won, considering how close it is without Kawhi and PG.
Love u Russ 💙
0:39 that dribble move by zubac is underrated

James Harden really ruined this clippers situation with Russ lmao smh
Respect

Clippers 25 free throw
Wwoowow vamos L.A con KL será otro resultado 😊

Westbrook back on being a perimeter pest, reminiscent of 2011 spurs vs okc.
LEADER!😤

Kawaii will be back day to day Clippers in 6
Never say over before it’s over. But you’re right. It’s 1000% over.

Ey. Baka Russel Westbrook yan.
Darn, I would have liked to see Marc Gasol off the bench
Just pulau kawhi for 30 games nnext seasin pleaseee
these comments 🔥🔥🔥 off to Denver we go
Too bad Ty Lue threw the game playing Morris over RoCo again.
All these "play Covington!" posts are killing him. Let his girlfriend know she's hurting his career.
Play both!
