    Now that Im near a computer , lets recap:

    Jamal Crawford- 2-13
    Jared Dudley- 0-4
    Collison- 4-8

    Thats 6/25 =24% from the field. DAT BENCH!

    OKC Bench:
    WHO CARES. (6/14 if you care between ADams, Butler, Jackson).


    Like I said, in the playoffs (and Barkley echoed this too on tuesday) The Bench means LESS than in the regular season. You play your STARS in the playoffs. WB and KD will play major minutes. They are the best 1-2 punch in the league. And, Clippers for 2 straight games got CRUSHED on the boards (52-36)

    If it wasnt for a complete CP3 shooting explosion in game 1 (which wont happen again), OKC would be up 2-0. Sorry. CP3 isnt hitting 8 three pointers in a row. They dont shoot that well, you should know this, you watch them.

    Also, RW was cheating on defense in the first game, and CP3 made him PAY. BIG TIME. He did not do that last night, he didnt go under screens. He is much faster than Cp3 so he can go over the top and get back on defense which is what he did and it was effective. Blake and DJ wont get easy baskets , Ibaka and Perkins are doing good jobs keeping them away from the basket.

    Still feel OKC is the better team. They have RW and KD on the floor for 40 minutes. Hard to beat. I worry about them vs Spurs because Spurs have 3 HOFers and 2 or 3 other all stars. OKC better finish them QUICK because they may get gassed.

    And lastly, I HATE CP3 now. Hes in the same league as Wade. Hes a whiner, a flopper, a bitcher and a moaner. That Adams Tech was NOT a flagrant foul at all. He goes to the ground then gets up like hes going to do something but all he is doing is looking for the Refs to bail him out. Hes like Griffin, such a FAKE TOUGH GUY.

    He likes to put his hands all over other PG, but if you do it to him, he acts like its a crime.

    Hes a typical gym rat, plays physical, then gets pissed when you play the same way back.

    Such a baby.

    Told you clippers wouldn't shoot lights out and okc would play much better.

    Bench matters less and less in playoffs man when you play your starters extended minutes. WB and Durant will play mega minutes.

    You have a lot of faith in guys named dudley collison Crawford.

    Jcraw is toooo streaky. He's capable of dropping 40 or 1/40.

    REASON HES BEEN ON 17TEAMS.
    We lost because of crawford? LMAO. This game ended when they gave Durant his MVP trophy AND they gave paul 2 fouls in the first. It ended there.

    Crawford has not been on 17 teams. You know what you're talking about? Obviously not.......

    Like I said..... Wizards in 5, Clippers in 6

    They will lose this series because Westbrook won't get Durant the ball despite Durant being on fire.

    Clippers have vastly superior coaching
    Paul, JJ, And Crawford..... You are smoking if you trust ONE shooter over 3 deadly accurate 4th quarter snipers. Who lead the NBA in 4th quarter scoring again?

    They will lost this series because we are a better team than them. Quit making excuses already. Our coach knows the value of a SERIES, NOT a GAME.

    Clippers in 6.......

    Great way to even the series back up. They've lost their biggest weapon, HOME COURT. Let's see if they can get it back....

    Clippers in 6....

    Great game westbrook. He still has a losing record vs the clippers since Paul has been there. And so does Durant.

    Let's see how they do in Game 3..... in L.A.

    JCraws been on 6 teams, I was exaggerating. Look it up. I know who he is, hes a pure scorer, but hes streaky.

    AHH now we blame the game on fouls on CP3. you got outplayed. Period.

    UM, anyone would trust 6'11 KD over Reddick who cant create his own shot, Cp3 who is 5'11'' and a bench player. Are YOU NUTS? Whats up with them snipers last night doe?

    2/13 SNIPER !

    Im not making excuses, the only team that can beat the THunder, is the THUNDER. If WB goes 11 minutes without giving KD the ball after he TORCHED the Clippers in the 1st quarter, THEY WILL LOSE.

    If they share the ball, KD and WB can single handedly defeat ANYONE

    Heart says okc. Head says spurs.

    I picked okc so I'll stay with them
    But spurs look LETHAL and I trust their bench and system much more than the clippers. Always said that.

    Spurs have much better IQ and athletes than the clippers so it'll be tough

    FYI JDM, I think KD played like 45 min last night.

    No need for a bench when you have the worlds best scorer on the floor.

    Anyone see WB completely dismantle cp3 on the post? Just blew by him like he was sitting still

    When WB is on, hes amazing to watch. CP3 doesnt have the answer for WB.... this has got to be breaking JDM's heart.

    Clips and CP3 are playing great.... but i think theyve run into a buzz saw.

    Its big boy basketball time now..... cinderella can exit stage left.

    If Ibaka keeps playing this well, okc will beat the spurs.... which sucks, because the spurs can beat the heat.... okc i dont believe can.

    Leonard is Lebrons kryptonite, Lebron is KDs.

    Oh watching the spurs right now its no question... Vastly superior to clippers.

    Clippers would win maybe 1 game.

    Clippers won't be serious contenders until they get trade BG or cp3 stops flopping and being fake tough.

    You okay? The clippers don't NORMALLY shoot well? You do realize we are the best offense in the NBA. #1 in scoring for the ENTIRE season. 107 per game....... we have been losing this series defensively.

    We have now got back on track and are making the necessary adjustments. Don't live in the world of one game...... this time of the year there are SERIES.

    What about the game 4 bench? no comment huh......

    JJ Redick..... 29 minutes. 7/10 w/ 18 points...... 70% from the field in game 2. If OKC allowed us to shoot terrible in game 4 and STILL get the Win. Imagine in game 5 when our WIDE OPEN looks are going in.....

    LMAO, keep watching my friend. You can pretend you're not watching the best PG in the nba when you watch these games....

    Name another PG who would take on the challenge of playing the NBA MVP who is 1 foot taller than him and WIN the battle. Then you have the nuts to come on here and give him praise? LMAO!

    LOL such a homer. Disappears when his team loses, only appears when they win :P

    Okc is the better team, they have 2 superstars the Clippers cant answer for. Hell they cant even stop Ibaka.

    The problem with OKC (and ive said it from day 1) is that the Clippers have Doc Rivers. You remember that argument you made (or should i say excuses) from last year about VDN not being good enough? Thats how Scott Brooks is. He doesnt coach. He doesnt call plays. When WB is GOOD WB, OKC is almost unbeatable. When he plays ragged and on the edge, they lose. KD should have posted CP3 and forced a double team, its basketball 101. He didnt, he tried to let them do what they always do which is shoot their way to victory.

    All these adjustments, and despite all that bad coaching, WB still had a WIDE OPEN look to win the game.

    You guys are not dominating anything. its not even close. You need your starters and bench players to cover 2 PEOPLE. Do you realize how shallow the Clippers are? If CP3 didnt have the shooting game of his LIFE in game 1, you would be looking at a SWEEP. YOu realize that right? IF CP3 has a game like he does in any other game of the playoffs , you would be down 3-0 going into game 4.

    Clippers have a shot, any team can get hot. But, THE ONLY TEAM THAT CAN BEAT OKC, IS OKC.

    OKC in 6, like I always said. They will win tonight.

    Kevin Durant won the scoring title for what, 3 years ? And is this years MVP?

    KD>Melo

    Let me know when Melo gets to the finals or wins an MVP.

    We scored 35 points in 9 minutes. Their defense isn't good. We missed shots that we normally make.

    Keep watching my friend..... You already overreacted in the GS series.

    Let's see how great Durant is. Let's see how great Westbrook is.

    The same with Paul, deandre, and Blake.

    Let me know when Melo gets to the finals or wins an MVP.
    Basketball is a team game. Just because your team and situation is better, doesn't 100% always make it true that you are better.

    Same goes with Westbrook and curry. Curry is a better point guard than Westbrook, but his team is much better so everyone thinks he's better. Curry's offense just doesn't trump the best defensive PG in the NBA in cp3, we just seen that. (The same point guard who guarded the MVP of the league in this series, and will have to guard the best overall offensive PG in the league in Tony Parker)

    I'm on record saying, Chris Paul is the new Gary Payton of the NBA defensively.

    If the ref's didn't call tick tack fouls on him most early games in series, the games would be a lot different. They finally let him get into curry defensively in the first round, let's see what happens from here on out. The beginning is over.......


    It's a 3 games series now!!!! Oh and for the record...... The spurs will always look dominant against bad teams like Dallas and Portland. Let's not be stupid and act like those teams are on the level of OKC and the clippers.

    Kinda sums my point up. OKC is def the better team, but their coaching and execution is HORRID
    So you say our coaching is better. I agree

    I say our players are better, TEAM wise!

    I think we have different feelings about these NBA players and teams. If you asked me which two I would want between Paul and Carmelo or Durant and Westbrook. I think that's obvious which two would be better. I think it's time you guys really see what Paul can do in crunch time playoff games but with a better team than the past and better coaching..... Don't over react every time OKC wins a game man, when one team wins 4 games it's over. We are 2-2 now. Let's just see who was right.

    How did I overreact? I said the Clippers would win that series? YOURE THE ONE THAT SAID THE GSW WOULD GET SWEPT, OR NOT WIN ANOTHER GAME, then they won 2 and went to Game 7.

    Who was MORE right?

    You then predicted they (OKC) wouldnt win a game in LA, WRONG. I said the series would come back 2-2, RIGHT.

    Sorry, youve been wrong more than I have been. Im much more even keeled. youre a homer :P (I say that with respect, I get it, im a Pats homer)

    No one with any semblance of rationality would say Melo is better than KD. So we can just stop there

    KD is the 2nd best player in the league for a reason

    I said that OKC would win, in 6. But I could see 7.

    FYI if im right, it doesnt make me some supreme basketball god, it just makes me lucky. I think the teams are interesting matchups, but , at the end of the day, if WB and KD can play 40+ minutes, like LBJ did last night vs BKN, I dont think Clippers can win. Their bench cant guard KD or WB. They got lucky for 9 minutes in game 4. If you watch that video, the exploitation was there. The Thunder had the advantage, but, give credit to the clippers, they EXECUTED so much better (a ton of that is for Chris Paul arguably the BEST leader on the floor today).

    They didnt dominate the THunder, they threw a weird matchup to them, and OKC will adjust and be better IMO. Brooks doesnt adjust on the fly, he waits a game, then adjusts.

    DOC is prob the BEST adjustment guy on the fly, next to Pop

    I still think thunder win, if they dont, it wont be because Clippers are a better team, itll be because OKC gives it to them. Ill uise the same excuse you used the last 2 years, itll be because of coaching.

    If both teams play thier A game, OKC wins.

    WB is gonna go off tonight and Okc wins a rout. Paul cant guard them both.


    Im not offended by Melo being compared to KD. I think Melo has a better post game.

    Melo has a better post game. But he doesnt have the handles KD does, and he doesnt rebound or assist like KD does.

    Speaking on players at the highest of levels......

    I feel like KD relies on floor spacing. Melo can do more in the half court and also works better in traffic. Kd needs space and needs to run.

    Were comparing lambos to ferraris
