    VERY POOR PERFORMACE by the home crowd

    They were very silent the whole game.

    Sorry Spurs fans on cfnet.

    Y'all are very adorable, though....how theG l i d e and others exude overconfidence when the Spurs are actually not showing much.

    I think he's legit nuts & I'm mostly here for it.

    As for the Rockets, everything seems to be breaking our way for once.

    So we want the Clippers to win this series?

    I think we have a major advantage with our bench but is it enough to overcome Paul doing whatever he wants?

    I worry because our athletic big men rotation was and would be our biggest advantage against the Spurs but its arguably neutralized if we play the Clippers.

    Clippers don't have anyone to guard Harden, so he must be aggressive. For goodness sake, please don't let Reddick go off..

    They needed something to compete with the fight. Why not our game? - CP3 :)

    They're use to being in the finals I guess. Still regular season to them.

    Blame Pop. The Hack-a-DeAndre crap can take your own crowd out of the game when you keep doing it.

    finally a bet comes good.

    hopefully the spurs can win game 7. their form peaked too early, now they're out of sorts.

    the clippers are a bad match up for the rockets.

    Damn I was actually going to call Spurs in 7 after game 5 but convinced myself out of it. For some reason I think the Spurs will still get it.

    As immature as I think the Clips are, there's no denying they are very close in level with the Spurs in this series. I have to give them credit.

    That's not the way us Rox fans were when we were a 6th seeded, defending champions.

    Spurs fans just suck. They don't actually like bball that much. They'd trade the Spurs for a NFL team in a second.

    Wow props to Clippers for proving me wrong. I thought they were toast after the first quarter. Spurs looked like their wasn't a lot of urgency (besides Bellinelli).

    Yeah Marco, Mills and Diaw scare me. Our bench can match them but their bench is a well oiled machine.

    Compared to the Clippers' poor and now shrinking bench, I would much rather play them. Our starters should keep things even with theirs, but our bench should continually out play theirs.

    Hoping for a record breaking 15 Overtimes on Saturday.

    No agenda.

    I am a huge NBA fan in general and just love entertaining basketball.

    How about that Leonard in the second half, humn? He did a Houdini and disappeared.

    Clippers are the better team, San Antonio is the smarter team. Not sure which will win in the final game but it is clear that San Antonio has begun to fall.

    Next year the spurs better hope they can convince aldridge to come to the Spurs. If I were Aldridge I'd do it.

    Spurs-Clips game 7 followed directly by Pacquaio/Mayweather. Saturday night is going to be awesome.
