I dey tell you!!! I wish Doncic can open up about it. That comment was absolutely unacceptable, worsestill he has black teams that should be holding him accountable. It is shameful.
This is the problem. A hefty fine at the very least. This is always my concern with left leaning leaders always enabling rubbish. Commissioner Stern would not tolerate this crap

Between your good friend that calls someone universally regarded as one of the greatestof all time, "Lebum", the other one "LeNomad", and me, it is obvious to any objective mind who are the sycophants here.

We are dragging this issue unnecessarily. Let's wait for Lebrons' next loss and we will see y'all wanking all over it and calling him all sort of names.

This life no balance at all grin

Yup. It also tells you that the current fight for equality is going nowhere. Its an appeasement show. Outside of actual activities by the players, the NBA attempts at political correctness will do nothing

Does anybody know the strategy R. Carlisle has employed since the 3rd Q?

Well, this is what I am seeing. He is winning thus far with his guard play strategy. Irrespective of who brings the ball up, Doncic, Curry or Burke, when they come off the screen and roll at the top, they are pressing inside the paint and not passing to the rolling player which is forcing the Clippers to sag which opens the paint area for open shots.

Doc has tried to counter by switching from a man on man to zone to hybrid to high picks to catching the ball carrier high up the Mavs half but they are still finding it easy to penetrate.

Absolutely! It just shows how unfair humans can be if the scale is ever tipped in their favor. I expected someone to have said something, including the broadcasters, play by play analysts and commentators but everyone has stayed quiet like nothing happened but we all heard it. It’s a shame, a big one that embarrasses me.

Talk about Clutch Kawhi making the right plays.. The Mavs chose not double Kawhi and paid for it.

Lowry has limped out, I hope it's not serious.
But Doncic, I have nothing to say about that guy, if he's doing this in an age grade tournament I'll say he falsify his age but to think the boy is just freaking 21 and he even dey carry that team at his age is unbelievable. He even had triple double my goodness doncic is the truth and I can say the future of NBA is safe in the hands of people like him.

Kawhi better ask them to trade him. Someone that plays crap and can't own up to it but would rather blame someone else will never win you shyte. I fear for the Clippers if their supposed second best guy has this mentality. It's a serious problem

Any other team would also have problems. Carlisle is a problem coach. Doncic was still unknown, but he plays like a disciplined Harden.

Actually the way the clippers have played them makes me fear clippers more. They are deep enough to take any team. They are coming out of the west easy after this series.
