Well we are glad the Mavericks made the playoffs, but the Clippers have an inordinate amount of motivation to do well And then there is Kawhi Leonard. People always argue who is the best player. That argument is always subjective of course. Mr. Leonard is a great player and is in the discussion as one of, if not best players in the league right now. What scares me more is there is this mystic element of his game that either consciously or subconsciously he turns on during some games.
In talking about great players, they always have a will to win, an undeniable force in games where they take over, yet with Mr. Leonard something else happens. It is like you can see wisps of some unknown element in his game on the TV screen. Like all great players his will leads his team to victory, yet with him there is something more. This does not always appear in every game. He plays great all the time, but this secondary mystic element is not always present. I fear though this will be prevalent against the Mavericks as this series goes on.
Certainly the Clippers have more talent and will play hard, but the Mavericks have enough talent that if they play harder they could win, yet this Leonard aurora of a light around him has a life of its own and the Mavericks may be coming home sooner than I hope or want.
So there is only one thing left to do.....Hey Bubba, get your butt in here; we got to pray like hell.
Cheers and go Mavs
