Paul just adds to LAs arsenal. I'm not looking forward to him playing at all. Its got the makings of a disaster. Everything will be that much easier for Blake and Reddick especially
Gimped CP3 almost single handedly beat the Spurs in Game 7. I'm not exactly counting him out once he comes back.
I dont see how CP3 coming back makes things any easier unless people think there's some weird chemistry thing with the clippers going on when he's gone that makes them harder to beat. The Rockets are going to have to play the best basketball all season to win when he comes back, which is a far cry to how they've been playing in the first two games of this series.
More Like Rockets Defense. Not hard to look like GOAT when the rockets let him get what he wanted for 6 straight Qrts
Also, the title of this thread should be 'Blake Griffin Clippers vs CP3 + Blake Griffin Clippers', because that's the reality. Griffin doesn't go away when Paul is back.
Your crazy if you want CP3 to come back. If Austin Rivers and Lester ****ing Hudson have been tearing our asses up, it wouldn't matter if comes back CP3 in a damn wheel chair, he would still kill us. I'm hoping that the Clips have been trying to play down his injury and that he will stay out as long as he can in this series.
What I can't believe is seeing absolutely no one calling out Paul for that completely obvious offensive foul push off (his go to move) he hit the game winner with. **** was blatant... Anyway, I like our chances to at least be competitive. We split the season series with them with no Dwight to check Deandre at all... for all 4 games. Kind of hoping he is somewhat hobbled. Injured hamstrings are tough to deal with and take a while to heal.
Blake Griffin with or without CP3 will dominate Jones and Smiff it's like LMA last year all over again
Griffin becomes an all around monster when CP3 is in the game. Did you guys watch the Spurs series? He was dominating in that series.
Really hope we can somehow get a victory on Friday. No doubt in my mind CP3 will play but we beat them in LA in the regular season with him playing so if this team focuses, they can do it. If we win game 3 that will be HUGE. Ariza/Brewer on CP3, FRONT Blake, MAKE YOUR FREE THROWS. Obviously Harden & D12 need to be stellar but we NEED smooth to play well.
Uhh y'all did see what JJ Barea did to us, right? Imagine what CP3 is gonna do to us... slice us, dice us and create wide open shots for Redick, Barnes and crew. Griffin and Deandre are just gonna live above the rim. I'm scared.
CP3 needs to stay hurt for as long as possible. Did you guys see Jamal Crawford tonight? Yes, please.
