Dallas put the "Are they better without Kawhi Leonard?" question to bed with a 123-93 destruction in Game 5. Entering that contest, the Clippers had won the two prior games without Leonard and lost the two with him in the lineup. That 30-point thrashing suggests that Los Angeles would probably like to have Leonard around. Unfortunately for the red-and-blue, he has already been ruled out for Game 6. Luka Doncic paced the Mavs with 35 points on 14-of-26 shooting as Dallas shot 54-percent from the field in Game 5. The Clippers' offense was never able to find a rhythm, shooting 38-percent from the field and 25-percent from three-point range. Russell Westbrook has been somewhat of a disappointment this series for LA, making just four of his last 26 field goal attempts. Amir Coffey has served as Leonard's replacement in the starting lineup, but his impact on the box score has been minimal. In the two games that Leonard did play in this series, we saw an average of 190 points per game. In the three games that Leonard has not played in this series, we've seen an average of 216 points per game. With a rested Oklahoma City squad awaiting the winner of this series, Dallas will be highly motivated to put this series to bed.
