Re: NBA Thread
I think the Clippers will probably win by 25 or 30+. As crazy as it seems I don't trust them if the game is relatively close in the 4th quarter.

I agree. They should win, but they "should" have won being up 15 in the second half of the previous games too.4/5 wrote:I think the Clippers will probably win by 25 or 30+. As crazy as it seems I don't trust them if the game is relatively close in the 4th quarter.

Re: NBA Thread
Yep. I can chalk blowing game 5 up the desperation/closeout game thing, so while still embarrassing it's no big deal. To do the exact same thing two days later isn't quite as forgivable. I'm of the mindset that it can't possibly happen again and I think I'm right, but I also thought that same thing on Sunday afternoon.Monkey_Driven wrote:I agree.

It's admittedly insane, but it feels like it's either a Clippers blowout or the Nuggets win tonight.

Re: NBA Thread
Saying the Clippers will probably win by 30? That's not how this is going to play out.

I'm rooting against them so that tends to give teams a pretty big boost.verb_to_trust wrote:Saying the Clippers will probably win by 30? That's not how this is going to play out.

Re: NBA Thread
All during the playoffs the commentators are wondering what's wrong with Kemba...he's too small to get his shot off against playoff defense Doris. He's killing us.

Re: NBA Thread
First 10 minutes of the game and the last two minutes of the third quarter just atrocious.

Maybe but he’s Iike 6’8 and went up strong and raised his arm back to throw it down with authority.

Re: NBA Thread
Kemba was mostly awful trying to force things. Great block. Butler's facial hair is still horrendous. Should be a great series.
