    We won by 2 points and it's because Jamal was out and Griffin made 1 stupid move in the final minute of the game.

    Realistically, were a 90% first round exit if we face them in the play offs (unlikely we match up with them anyway)

    Dallas ...would be the ultimate fun .

    If they win which unlikely, Cuban will go over the tax limit to resign
    If they loose which is more likely, he will keep Parson only

    oh spurs already passed the clippers. they're finaly healthy and have chemistry going so they're not gonna drop any lower. 6 seed has to be dallas or clips, so we need to get the 3rd seed. im not worrieda bout the blazers with a healthy dwight

    I think with Brewer and even Josh Smith, we're able to beat them. Not to mention it seems like Clippers are starting to implode a little on themselves.

    Don't speak too soon. Their schedule for the rest of the month is soft. It will give them time to figure it out and rest.

    I get what you're trying to say but that's a silly number and a silly thing to try and quantify so simply.

    Me neither....bad match up for us. What troubles me is the fact we were up two and didnt foul jordan a notoriously bad ft shooter. If not for the defense of Ariza we almost lost cause we couldnt stop cp3.
    Our coaching is not elite enough and will be a problem as it was last yr against the blazers.

    We can beat them without Jamal Crawford. They guy literally makes every thing whenever he sees rocket red.

    We were up by 2, but we didn't have a chance to foul Jordan. He never today chef the ball. If we had intentionally fouled him that late in the game, he would have had two free throws and they would have gotten the ball back

    I wouldn't mind playing these pansies in the first. The Clippers act hard, but they are soft as hell.

    Neither do I. And going under CP3 pick and rolls is not a strategy I'd use often. Luckily it worked yesterday........

    I'd rather play GS than the LAC. They're simply too big and kill us on the boards all series

    They're a bunch of female reperoductive organs. I don't want to watch a whole series of Chris Paul complaining to the refs ever 3 seconds while Blake and Barnes cheap shot our players.

    We have to play somebody to advance. Tired of all this " I don't want to face so and so".
    This is the NBA where anything can happen. If you believe in your team then it shouldn't matter who were gonna knockout in the first rd....and 2nd

    I like our chances against the Clips, especially with D12 and without Crawford.

    I like our chances against anyone....if we have home court.

    It is highly suspect to make such a claim ( Jamal was out) while ignoring that D12 is out.

    Stupid to say 90%...stupid comment.

    Hate these kind of threads because we have to go through them all eventually if we want to win the title
