Photo by Bryan Boado @ Tangent Zine) In what could be their final home game in downtown Los Angeles, the Clippers were handed the biggest defeat in their post season history losing by 30 points to the Dallas Mavericks, 123-93. It was one of those miserable nights when the Clippers superstars just don't pop. Paul George, Russel Westbrook and James Harden seem to play with blindfolds on and could not sink a shot, even when left open. Against an intense, physical Dallas defense employed on them, Westbrook, Harden and George combined to shoot 8 of 36, including 3-of-13 from 3-point range.

The Slovenian superstar tallied 35 points, seven rebounds and 10 assists while his co-star Kyrie Irving logged 14 points and six assists. Former slam dunk champion Derrick Jones Jr. remains to be a menace for the Clippers offense as he blocked three shots and forced the players he is guarding to a turnover or a miss. The Mavericks now lead the series 3-2 with homecourt advantage in their favor.

The Dallas Mavericks defeated the LA CLIPPERS 96-93 Tuesday night to even the first round of their Western Conference series at one game apiece. Luka Doncic scored 32 points, 9 assists and six rebounds. Aside from leading all scorers, Luka also did the intangible things. He inspired the Mavs to locking down the Clippers, making them shot 36.8% from the floor, their lowest field goal percentage of the season. Kyrie Irving added 23 points to support his co-star. “What I’ve learned with Luka is that you’ve got to trust him,” Irving said after the win. “He’s an incredible leader next to me, and we empower people to have a voice. And when he’s emotional, he’s honest. I’d rather be out there with someone who’s emotional and wants to get better for himself and the team than someone who’s quiet, allowing things to happen and depending on everyone else to step in. He’s one of those leaders who just wants to make his presence be felt.” In his first game since March 31 suffering from inflammation on his surgically repaired right knee, Kawhi Leonard shook some dust off and scored 15 points and seven rebounds in 35 minutes of play.  “I was just trying to make sure I could get into the game and play,” Leonard said. “That’s what my last week has been about, trying to get back on the floor.” James Harden and Paul George led the Clippers with 22 points each while center Ivica Zubac contributed 13 points and 12 rebounds. The Mavericks win on the road gives them home court advantage when Game 3 resumes at the American Airlines Center in Dallas this Friday, April 26 at 5 PM PST.

Giannis Antetokounmpo, "The Greek Freak", stepped onto the court with the might of Zeus, scoring 34 points 10 assists, and seven rebounds to lead the Milwaukee Bucks past the LA Clippers 124-117. His partner in crime, all-star guard Damian Lillard had a brilliant performance as well .
