    Anytime I see the "service" angle...I laugh like a mofo. You can spot 'em a mile away. Hate to say it but the world is not exactly crapping their pants these days when that is mentioned. Totally laughable.Made my night...REALLY.

    Not sure how I feel about this victory. I was so pissed that nothing changed from last game in the 1st half. No adjustments, no effort whatsoever, just sloppy, terrible ball.

    We finally started playing hard in the 3rd, which was nice to see. Once we stepped up the intensity the Clippers just folded.

    If we play at least three out of four quarters with the intensity we played with in the 4th, we have a chance. But the fact that we had to pull off a crazy run to barely scrape out a game on our home floor with the other team missing its best player doesn't exactly instill me with confidence for the remainder of the series.

    We NEED to get SOMETHING out of Smith, Terry and Ariza offensively.

    Jones came alive in the 2nd half but we need more aggressiveness from him too.

    Smith doesn't need to play. He's absolutely atrocious on both ends of the court. He's also a turnover machine and terrible at the free throw line. He's not a good matchup for the Clippers.

    Lol. I mean it's true, but it was stupid to bring stuff like that up in a game thread and it had no relevance to anything. I did the exact same stuff I was talking about and started whining and b****ing lol.

    This win no matter how close will give us some confidence. The most important thing was figuring out how to slow Griffin down. Sure they will make adjustments and come hard at us, but the team did not fold after the 41 point barrage.

    Dwight was awesome, and Harden showed up big time in the crucial 4th quarter.

    I do feel that Paul is a real superstar despite all his flopping. He is so creative. We are lucky he missed Game 1 and 2. Nevertheless, we do have a chance to grab one game in LA. If Smith and Jones play well there, we can put them under real pressure.


    Go Houston Rockets!
