    Trez race-baiting Doncic as a “Bitch Ass White Boy” didn’t turn out well. Playoff P sucks, as always. West is wide open. Wow, what a game for Luka Doncic without Porzingis. That’s MVP stuff.

    Dude hasn't won a playoff series since calling himself Playoff P. Is his shoulder hurting again? LOL. Goodbye.

    He isn’t going to win this one either even if the Clippers win. Doncic and Leonard are the franchise players. Paul George is the snarky guy who thinks he’s at their level. Still cant believe his mocking of Dame after the FTs.

    Leaders don’t do that. Reminded me of Rasheed and Bonzi throwing a basketball at RBB and laughing about it. Not what leaders do.

    besides the game-winning shot, Doncic had 43 points, 17 rebounds, and 13 assists

    fucking Mark Cuban

    He had a huge ice bag on his shoulder after Game 2.

    Twitter has started calling him Pandemic P.

    I envy the Raptors. Solid defense, everyone seems to be contributing, FIFTY-TWO bench points, ball movement, etc. Not gon lie, I'd be happy for them to win it all again this season.

    Paul George is not a superstar player. Lou Williams is their key secondary players.

    It'd be super funny if (when?) they last longer in the playoffs than the Clippers...

    Oh that's right, you're a Raptors fan? What's the status of Lowry?

    Full speed ankle roll which is probably a lot worse than Luca's but no word yet. The NBA want to rush the start of the next round so there might be no reward of rest for the sweep which sucks. Need Lowry for the Celtics series.
