NBA play off starts today. 

Yanks are masters of entertainment. I dont have a feeling there is no audience.

I think Clippers will win it!

Same here. I think their depth is just amazing, which when coupled with kwahi and PG-13, is scary. The whole season I got the feeling that clippers were in 2nd gear. Will be great to watch them go full throttle

Hahahaa. Not when they keep trading kristapas and Hardaway for trash.

By the way originally from LA and a clipper through and through (had some family connections with the franchise) . Even when we were a joke. Man, steve Ballmer has really changed everything about us.

Let's hope. That was such a toothless performance by AD and LBJ.

Clippers vs nuggets today, really hope clips continue with the momentum. Things are looking good.

Yeah, and Miami doing amazing things!

Rockets beat Lakers I think 3 times now in the row with small lineup. They have the formula defensively for them.

And yeah, cannot see Clippers having any troubles against Denver.

Miami has been crazy. I expected them to put up a fight, but in no way be 3-0 up. Raptors are lucky to even be in the series.

Yup, 3rd consecutive win and all by 10 or more points. 

Let's hope that's the case. 

Btw, congratulations to harrel for the 6th man of the year award. Deserved it.

Seriously? Back to back games where you lose 15+ points lead.

Un freaking believable. Unacceptable. This is not championship mentality, this is not championship mettle. This is pure bull. 

I am fine and I have been fine with a lack of quality in MY franchise all my life. I am fine with being outplayed, but not fine being out fought. What a bunch of pussies.

18 points lead in the middle of 3rd quarter. I think Clippers are much better team, do not know what happened to them. Still think they will win next game but against Lakers it will be very tough.

One thing I have learned through the many years of play-off watching, quality counts for shit if there is no fight.

Right now, this is the worst case scenario for my franchise. We sold our future in shai, 5 draft picks and choker we got for it is useless at clutch. It's a couple of such trades/transfers which can set back your club 3/4 years (example - torres). 

I don't think we will win the game. They have the momentum, the belief, the fight. They are anyways on "borrowed time" due to the jazz series and what's happened in this series. Infact it's a decent think, that this circus does not get blown away by LBJ.

Told you, no way were we winning this. The mental capitulation!!!! I mean i have never EVER seen anything even close to this. I have never seen your 2 All-stars and future hall of famers sitting on the bench for the final 2 minutes. It was a catastrophe. 

I have been supporting this franchise all my life, but I sincerely think I have not seen a team which were such a bunch of pussies, teams with no balls. Either doc rivers needs to go or we need to press the reset button again and start the rebuild. There is no coming back mentally from what has happened, unfortunately. Trade PG for a good 3 and D player and draft picks, if that makes Kwahi want to leave, so be it, but we just cant let them go again.

And on Doc rivers, my god, what a fucking imbecile. You yourself say that Jokic is one of the best passing centers to have EVER played. You compare him to Larry Bird, and then you try to double team him and leave people free for him to find. Instead of playing to your own strengths (1 v 1 defending with some of the best perimeter defenders), you try to do THIS. Got to go, unacceptable. Heads need to roll for what has happened. I would have taken a hard fought clean sweep over this shit.

Doc Rivers fired. 

Thank you for everything Doc, but this is as far as you can take us. A decent coach, a great guy, but unfortunately, you need clutch and he is probably the most anti clutch coach I have seen.

In nba history, in the 70 years, there have been just 13 times that teams have blown a 3-1 lead. Doc Rivers has been at the end of it, 3 times. 3 out of 13!!! Thats 23% of the overall fuck ups ever.

Let's see who we get in, really hope it's Billy Donovan.
