What happened when Patrick Beverly tries to guard James Harden? Does Harden foul him out?

Oh shucks post game just for me? Lol but seriously thanks, I'm not sure if the lack of post game thread is the reason, but it felt like there were more discussions after the game when we had them.

When Draymond tried to double Leonard the first time it looked too risky. After the second consecutive time I shut the game off. Since I was hoping we would get Batum, it hurt to see him kicking butt for them against us. Batum shooting 45.7% from 3 on almost 4 attempts per game. Don't leave him open!

There definitely did feel like another gear to the Clippers stars' effort level late in the 4th. Oddly, Kerr did not match by varying his lineup. It makes me wonder if we're really playing this year for next year, wanting to win to prove that the new team, and the new defense, can gel into a force but not particularly interested in a higher seed because it hurts the draft assets, and perhaps reduces opportunities to develop Wiseman into a 30m a night guy. If that's the case, last night was a success. If not, I'm struggling with Kerr's choices in the 4th. Wiseman will benefit from the experience no doubt, but it would be a shot in the arm to the confidence of this team and its players to knock off some high level competition. And I wouldn't mind shutting up all the obnoxious naysayers out there.
