Losing to a Nash-less Suns tonight. 5-9 in their last 14 games. The good vibes from earlier in the season? Gone. What happened to them? Also, Blake Griffin seems to have go from popular to annoying in no time. It's like he's turning heel.
Del Negro can't coach worth jack, don't know why he still has a job Their offense is so stagnant and lacking creativity
Offense looked ugly. Chris Paul didn't step up. Bigs couldn't rebound. Don't think Nick Young will solve their problems.
They're just not that good. They are way under experienced on the defensive end. Their two bigs are amongst the top fouling players in the whole league and they start and play on the same team at the same time. That's the same type phenoma we were experiencing with the Rockets when Martin and Bud were starting at the 2 and 3 and we were getting blasted. Two of the worst perimeter defenders in the whole league playing on the same team at the same time spells disaster. Well, the Clips got two bigs, each of whom are in the top rung of foulers in the NBA and they play on the same team at the same time. They are doomed in the playoffs because they can't defend on the interior. I don't care how high you jump. If you got fouls against, you can't block shots and throw down dunks sitting on the pine. They are an early exit. Gotta do major work on the defensive end.
This. LOL. Total collapse in the 4th quarter tonight. Griffin is letting all the hype get to his head. A lot of today's stars are weak minded.
They're just proving me right! They are a bunch of spoiled brats that feel entitled because the can throw lobs! 1st round exit for flake griffin!
They should've moved Griffin and pieces for Dwight when the opportunity was there. Griffin is probably the best Orlando would've gotten and a Dwight/Paul combo would have been deadly. Everything Griffin does well... Dwight does better in a bigger/stronger body.
under 4 mins left the suns intentionally got the clips in the bonus. sent blake and deandre to the line for 2/4. thirs time dandre knocked down both ft. i think that tactic bothered them.
It's no coincidence that every team Billups left immediately got worse. Starting with Detroit, then Denver, then New York and now Clippers. One heck of a leader.
Billups is one of those players who always had decent stats but meant far far more to his team than the box score.
How do you collapse at home in the 4th quarter against the Suns when Nash and Grant Hill don't even play? Losing Billups was big but methinks Vinny is a goner. I thought CP3 might be able to make up for some of his deficiencies, but not so. They have to fire Vinny, get a legit coach and get a dynamic perimeter scorer at SG/SF. Caron Butler has been a flaming disappointment.
Griffin is way over rated. He's a young Shawn Kemp without the defense. He does not make his teammates better because he can't dominate in ISO situations. He does not forced defenses to adjust to him and doesn't force a double team.
