Can't let up. You've got your foot on their throat, time to put all of your weight on it!

Extremely important game, of course. Basically last chance for Clippers to get back into the series but a win shifts a momentum a little bit their way.
Couple of things I am worried about. If I am Clippers I would go super aggresive on defensive side by disrupting flow of offense. Put Luka on the line for 20 or 30 FT if necessary, just don't let the Mavs offense gain momentum. I was surprised they didn't do this in game 2. Be strict in defense against rest of Mavs (don't overhelp on Luka) and foul Luka. No problem for them if they switch, just don't let him get to his positions and shots. However, the defensive misshaps from game 2 video are making me optimistic the Clippers issues are too big to overcome. Seems Kawhi is not capable of playing on both sides, mental lapses over whole team,... Mavs shooting goes cold. The insane shooting they showed first two games is of course killing the defender and his will to defend while giving huge boost to Mavs. Everything is easy if shots are falling. Start of the game will be crucial again. Mavs were able to establish their rhytm in both games. Will Clippers allow that again? Fall behind and Clippers motivation will rise exponentially, establish your rhytm and Clippers might start falling apart. Effect of (almost) full arena for the first time. Will it really be a boost or will also our players be affected by these change, making their hands tremble a bit reducing the shooting percentage? Of course we can be optimistic, but I am not 100 % sure the effect will be positive. However, even if it will negative, I am certain it won't last more than one game.

Josh Green is a top 5 Mavs player...

Tim Cato is guessing it is Batum for Zubac and perhaps Rondo for Beverly. btw. Zubac is getting a lot of heat this series. But is the Clippers small ball lineup any better?

Saw somewhere that Ibaka is having back spasms. Any update on his availability?
That could put a hole in their defensive rotations. Maybe it's time to take the tarp off of KP and let him have a night.

Am I remembering incorrectly that Mann was pretty annoying and disrespectful/disruptive to our team this year?
