    Who are they going to use to post up Paul? Westbrook? They don't have any good post players.

    Now that was a whooping!

    Has to be somewhat demoralizing to the Thunder.

    So much bull**** and you know it and if not you are ignorant.

    What happened when he got smoked by the Lakers in the first round huh?

    McHale has had Harden and Howard for one year together.

    Anyone feel like the shirts handed out to the home crowd always (read: ALWAYS) color coordinates with the away team?

    I mean, if the game were on mute, OKC could be seen as the away team because they're wearing white.

    I'm going to be in Los Angeles on Sunday, and I just bought tickets for Game 4. Here's my question:

    Who in the ever-loving f**k do I root for?

    So you're comparing a Durant/WB in their first playoffs together at age 21 years old as an 8th seed getting smoked by the Lakers in SIX GAMES to a prime Howard and a 24 year old Harden with HOME COURT advantage?

    Are you even freaking serious?

    Didn't even need to bring that up. But thanks though.

    Deandre Jordan led the league in rebounds, was third in blocks, led the league in FG% and was third in the Defensive Player of the Year voting. On top of which, I think he was probably the best defensive player in the second half of the year. How is he not top 6-7 already let alone top 3 in the center position. The only two centers I'd take over him would be Anthony Davis (if you consider him a center) and Joakim Noah because of his motor.

    With the center position pretty much made insignificant in the modern NBA offenses, the Clippers have gotten the most out of Deandre for things that centers should be only relegated to do...that is board and defend the paint. Doc specifically told Deandre he is responsible for the defense and they will not run any plays to him on offense. Any point he gets is off of blown defense ally-oops or offensive put backs.

    Yeah, happens way more often than not. Too many teams use a shade of blue.

    Really pulling for KD now after his heartfelt MVP speech. Beat Chris Paul!


    Thought the clippers do look like much more of a complete team

    WB/CP3 can't guard one another.

    Durant with a hesitation dribble, then a eurostep. How many 6'9'' guys can do that? Wow.

    Westbrook and Durant are proving a point tonight. Westbrook needs to attack like this all the time instead of settling for jumpshots.
