First of seven straight games at the Garden.

Another potential Finals matchup.

Castigate the Clippers.

Keep KP in bubble wrap tonight. As much as I love to watch him play tonight’s game is not really important at all.

Pretty good test tonight. First game back from a roadtrip is always an adventure and this Clips team is HOT despite coming off a back to back. Over the last 25 games they're:

21-5
52/42/84 as a team (that's some good shooting; Steph Curry is currently 45/40/93, opponents are 47/37/78)

They're now up to fourth in net rating, jumping over the Timberwolves.

My guess is the Cs try to run them as much as they can. Clips are one of the few teams with a slower pace than the Cs and the back-to-back is real. Look for the Cs to push hard off of missed shots and maybe throw Pritchard at Harden to try to annoy him bringing the ball up.

C's getting great looks from 3-point range; they're just bricking them.

Crazy how much shooting varies from game to game, even with elite teams like Boston.
