    There is no difference in the outcome of the series.

    Warriors vs Clips full strength - Warriors still win
    Warriors - Curry vs Clippers - CP3 - Warriors still win

    Warriors win in either scenario = no difference in the outcome

    Maybe the little punk should stop grabbing other people's jerseys from behind, or drink more milk.

    gotcha, cp3's rep is well known and am aware of all those things you've mentioned above. I was just a little confused where the dirty part was coming from just this play and was just thinking to myself how normally this occurs during a game.

    ok as long as you're consistent with your logic in saying houston without harden and howard wouldn't make a difference either then. Bc that's pretty much what you're saying. Its pretty much if you're not GS or SA, it doesn't matter who you put in front of them regardless of the players that are playing, best ones or not.

    I am 100% convinced that the Rockets will lose with both Harden and Howard playing because that is exactly what is happening. Now take Harden and Howard out...hmm my guess is we still lose..

    Dont feel bad for him one bit. The way he plays the game is so annoying; you cant even breathe on him without him flopping like a fish.

    because it's freaking chris paul.. he's so good at sneaking dirty plays by as normal that he fooled you...

    now this really could have been a tough break on him but because he has this reputation he doesn't get the benefit of the doubt.

    Warriors w/o Curry vs Full clippers team

    now that would be interesting. Even if its only for a few games, it gives the Clips a handicap advantage.

    its not about fooling anybody. that's not what im addressing here. maybe you're just used to watching people giving up on plays like this and just giving him a free layup. so many of the cp3 incidents are completely obvious unless you have no clue what you're watching.

    I'd rather have CP3 than Harden. Bet Morey would too. Morey thinks CP3 is GOAT true point guard.

    Looks like he put his hand on Henderson while he was jumping causing his hand to twist some way?

    No CP3, no Griffin.

    Lol looks like we are going to be seeing some DJ post ups.

    It's not.

    It's an unspoken rule in any basketball game that you don't foul someone from behind when he is already in the air. He tried to push/pull the guy from behind when the guy was in the air, that's a dirty play.
