2014 NBA Playoffs: Los Angeles Clippers(3) vs Golden State Warriors(6)

Didn't see this posted yet, props to the Warriors players.

Warriors Planned To Walk Off Court After Tip-Off In Game 5

The Golden State Warriors planned on walking off the floor after tip-off in Game 5 if Adam Silver not banned Los Angeles Clippers' owner Donald Sterling for life.

“It would have been our only chance to make a statement in front of the biggest audience that we weren’t going to accept anything but the maximum punishment,” Stephen Curry said. “We would deal with the consequences later but we were not going to play.”

The Warriors’ players wanted to protest previously, but decided to give Silver a chance to do the right thing.

Curry, David Lee, Andre Iguodala and Jermaine O’Neal were behind the boycott idea.

The idea included plans to reach out to the Clippers' players, hoping they would join them.

wow the Oracle is loud tonight

 

Deandre Jordan is fun to watch!

Granger and fat baby are playing some terrible basketball for the clippers.

 

Big Baby just destroyed Jermaine O'Neal's knee... sucks

 

Wow...Davis....

 

Im not sure wtf glen davis was doing there. That is a dangerous play, and you should never go low at someones knees, especially these seven footers.

Not sure why the fans are mad at the refs either. They called the foul....i havent been paying attention to the game though.

 

rip to jermaine o'neals career

 

That looked bad

 

So...the Warriors have zero big men...

God Speed

 

Does anyone laugh when Jordan Crawford walks, and does his stretchy movements during free throw attempts? Lolololzzz

 

Love Deandre's activity around the rim.

 

Wow, it looked worse on the replays...that should definitely be a flagrant 2 imo.

 

You're acting like noone has ever run into someone ever in a basketball game.

 

You dont know basketball. He went shoulder to knee. I dont care what you say, if you respect the game the you dont do that to someone. You dont leave your foot under someone when he shoots, you move it away. Some guys put it under.

The difference between bev and glenn was glen was out of control...had no footing, but he could have just raised his shoulder up and avoided the collision.

 

Also, he showed no remorse in his actions. He even looked proud of what he did. I think he knew what he had just done and he didnt seem to give a **** that oneal was on the floor wincing in pain.

 

It's quite clear you don't know basketball.

Please, try to educate us some more on what you 'think'

You will realise I said think instead of know - reason being is because you don't know much. I knew you wouldn't understand that so I clarified it for you.

 

So instead of giving valid points, youre entire post is an attack on me. At least i expressed my views beyond he was out of control and it just happens. Watch the replay again. What i wrote was valid.

 

An attack on you?

I merely said what you said to me.

I don't need to give points. Because it is common sense and was (I thought) fairly easy to comprehend in my earlier statement.

Are you 11 years old?

 

You can disagree, but i made points and you did not. Go back and reread, are you really that sensitive?

I feel strongly about this and i think you let the guy grab the rebound rather than make a football play at his knee.

It seems like australia and canada have more know it alls that always want to prove they are better than everyone, especially americans. That is what i think. What i know is that wasnt a basketball play.
