Asked Kawhi Leonard what it meant for him, Paul George, James Harden to play deep into a blowout when we have seen Clippers pull the vets for younger players (see: Hawks at LA in March 2021, TMann/Luke leading comeback)

Kawhi, PG, Harden being out here to close this game is notable in that I’ve seen T. Lue straight up bench the stars/starters when they’re getting smacked in recent years
In particular, Kawhi has said team should play through it in some of those cases.
That’s happening now – 11:37 PM

James Harden 3 after PJ Tucker steals Fernando’s pass makes it a 94-74 Hawks lead with 7:37 left
Probably not enough time to truly threaten the deficit giving how cooked Clippers jump shots have been overall, but Quin Snyder concerned enough to call a timeout in this spot. – 11:29 PM

Kawhi Leonard got an and-one with 8:56 left in 3rd quarter to cut Hawks lead to 13
The Clippers never made another field goal for rest of the quarter.
It’s an 88-62 Hawks lead, and if anyone is staying here on St. Patrick’s Day for this 4th quarter, salute
Harden: scoreless – 11:18 PM

It’s a 61-44 halftime lead for Hawks

Clint Capela already has a double-double: 10 points, 10 rebounds, 3 assists, 1 steal, 2 blocks
Hawks already have 20 fast break points. 💤 – 10:36 PM

Clips looked like a team that played 5 in 7 nights and coming off road back-to-back. They trailed Hawks 61-40 in second quarter. Harden is 0-for-6 as he comes back from 2 games off with left shoulder strain. This is one of those games when they miss Russ’ energy and need a spark – 10:31 PM

This is approximately how the Clippers looked the last time they came home after a stretch of 5 games in 7 days: First Saturday in December vs Warriors
Only that was a matinee against Steph and everybody played. Kawhi/PG/Harden all missed time during this past 5-in-7 – 10:28 PM

Clippers have two days off after tonight for last time until regular season finale
With bench in disarray, starters might need to play playoff minutes just to beat this version of the Hawks, who they trail 54-40 with 4:35 left in 1st half
Harden is scoreless on 0/5 FGs, 0/3 3s. – 10:22 PM

Mathews reads a pass to the corner from Harden and it ends up in a Matthews 3 on the other end. – 10:19 PM

My goodness, Vit Krejci with some real strong defense on James Harden and he sticks with him on the drive blocks it and gets the Hawks in transition. – 9:46 PM
