Default my clutch seems to be dragging

so i went to do a burn out and held the brake at the same time and let the clutch out but it seemed to just slip 3 times i tried it, usally i never hold the brake.anyways after i went to take off it was really hard to get into first or any gear, 1st has always seemed hard going into like the clutch is partially engaged kinda feel.
well i think it is for real now. i think i can smell the clutch while in gear with the clutch disengaged, unless its just still smelly from 10 minutes before when it slipped, but it just seems hard to get into gears now. feel funny. i did the old pull up on the pedal fast thing. and i have a new clutch cable so i wouldnt think its stretched
