Luke Kennard feels where he is on the court better than any player since Larry Bird. My friend is a Greek Priest. He used to teach at Hellenic College in Boston, the Celtics old practice court. He said that he used to put a blindfold on Bird , lead him by the arm, spin him around, and somehow Bird usually drained the 18 footer. That was Kennard last night. He brought the Clippers back from 35 down against the Wizards. He was just throwing the ball through the hoop on instinct like a Salmon returning to the spawning ground.
Kennard scored 7 points in the final nine seconds to win the game. The stupid Wizards could have fouled Justice Winslow with 3 seconds left, but let Kennard create a 4 point play
