    What a great 5 minutes!

    Conley is pretty terrific, but Chris Paul is a bonafide superstar if I ever saw one. Just terrific.

    To be fair, CP3 takes contested step back jumpers all the time in clutch situations. The difference is CP3 can actually create enough space to take a clean jumper, which is an area where Harden still needs to improve.

    LAC has no chance vs OKC.

    Memphis vs OKC would be a much better matchup.

    Looking like OKC vs Miami again

    Harden is a borderline superstar, but Paul is a lot better than Harden at the moment.

    I thought the grizzlies should have ran the time down and went for a 3. There was no way we were going to stop chris paul.

    I mean the clippers looked like they gave Gasol that 2 pointer. It takes guts to run the clock down and draw up a 3, but that's what winning is all about.

    LAC most certainly has a chance against OKC. They are pretty similar teams with equally incompetent coaches. The Clippers are on a 9 game winning streak and perhaps peaking again.

    That said, Memphis isn't done yet. I fully expect them to win the next two.

    Harden is a top 10-15 player in the NBA, CP3 is a top 3 player in the NBA
