In some ways this was my favorite KP game since his return, because his shot wasn't really falling and he still made huge impacts on the board and on defense. He also had a nice stretch in the 3rd quarter where the Mavs were clearly trying to feed it to him on the elbow matched up on smaller wings and he went to work. I missed the first half of the game, but Twitter was going crazy about how much Zubac was "dominating" in the paint and he finishes with the worst +/- on the Clips with -15. Which shows a) even when the shot isn't falling for KP he has a huge effect on offense clearing out the paint for Luka because you can't leave him alone b) people really get all up in their feelings over buckets by an opposing 5.
