    Lol.. Dude, it's not a 1 + 1 = 2 game:D

    Both teams are very competitive playoff teams and it's hard to predict whether they will win or lose.

    But because we've just lost a little bit in New York, our team will reflect and self-discipline. This will have a positive impact on the next game. So I think we're more likely to win.

    I respect your opinion.....there is a but.

    Marcus Morris was in the Conference Finals with Boston, posting very good numbers. He is at least more proven than House.

    Reggie Jackson, the OKC version, was better than Rivers.

    The only thing that is holding the Clippers back IMO, is their ego. They are not a team yet, bunch of individuals.

    They have arguably more overall talent. The Rockets have an identity.

    Well, the Clippers haven't reached anywhere near their pinnacle, predicting next year to be 'their year'.

    Our best shooters are McLemore at 39.7%, Tucker at 37%. The way Paul George is supposed to shoot.

    And RoCo is rebounding and blocking like a Kawhi should be.

    as long as we could keep our team D as persistent as what we did the last minute in Boston (W), we would be unstoppable;
    whenever we were dreaming we were somebody else like what we did in NYC, we were a pretender.
    No swaggering, just be ourself, be discipline, be old school to start everything from team D.
