    Here's who came to play .. Dwight , James , and ariza ... Everyone else sucks besides our 37 year olds and Capela who have been OK . For those blaming harden they don't understand that you can't win against a team defense . Harden isn't gonna score 40 because the clippers d is currently designed to stop that , his teamates have to move without the ball and make the shots he gets them . If they don't he is forced to try and make something out if nothing and sometimes he turns the ball over doing this .

    Jones and Smith simply have to do a better job keeping griffin in front of them . At the very least they need to make him into a jump shooter . If he makes them then so be it , but no one is picking him up and he is blowing by our 4's . We really miss dmo here . Brewer, smith , jones are out of control . We need more players that can make the smart plays and get the hockey assists .

    TJONES sucks!! He is never been able to defend above average PFs. He is not even contributing offensively.

    Harden is just too happy passing the ball and the passes are just too predictable or turovers!!

    We can't compete like this. Howard has been the only one showing up!!

    Morey and McHale on hot seat if we get swept. Time to bring in a Pop disciple.

    More talent on the Clippers and a better coach. We are done. We are getting outplayed and outcoached every step of the way. Griffin and Jordan are younger and want it more.

    That's EXACTLY what they did in Game 1. It's how the Clippers took over.

    But whatever.

    Clippers are just better right now. That's all there is to it.

    Blake Griffin is destroying the scouting report right now. He's hitting mid-range jumpers.

    Griffin hasn't shot below 40 percent in 10 games, he has been shooting so well

    Effort and heart is not the issue tonight. The Rockets are just so horribly coached. It so also doesn't help Harden is the only guy that can dribble a basketball.

    Blake Griffin is 2 points away from having as many points as Harden and Howard combined

    All of his shots were routine wide open shots/dunks/ layups.

    Taking my dog on a walk. Gotta take the steam off.

    If you're a coach, you must feel the same disgust I feel towards Kevin. Our players have a job to do, but so does the coach.

    Our coach is failing on too many accounts for a playoff game of this magnitude.

    Morey is a smart man. McHale was a great player. McHale is an incompetent coach. Win or lose. Incompetent.

    Griffin is better without CP3, the team runs through Blake....they should trade CP3, he dominates the ball too much.
