What is your expectation for Game 2?
Unrelated. Waive Morris this off-season and sign Melo there’s no way Mook is still hooping over Melo atp
I expect Kawhi to lead them to a victory. Taking this win will allow them to give PG more rest and allow them to possibly finish the series early. They will be able to rest and practice for Denver. Which is a huge advantage. I'm sure the team is also watching that possibility
Not me STARTING my day with an episode of LOC! 😛 love it!
I think the clippers will win again I think the clippers bench and other players will play better
It would be crazy if we win game 2
This is why the Clippers have a good chance: 1) Durant isn’t as good as he was when he joined the Warriors. 2) CP isn’t as good as he was with the Clippers/ Rockets. 3) Booker has never been consistent in the playoffs
We need to match their desperation and energy, which shouldn’t be a problem, we have the tougher, more physical and scrappier guys. Our physicality will wear them out they don’t have the toughest guys over their, CP0 is a hundred years old, Devin Booger is the fakest tough guy ever, Ayton is probably gonna get in gis feelings and we saw last year physically really bother KD plus we have the depth which they don’t. Outside of their top guys they have 0 offense. Nothing is promised tomorrow so we need to get greedy and take game 2 and take a strangle hold on this series. This Suns team is still trying to figure things out so we need to take advantage and head back to LA up 2-0.
If we take game 2 at there home it’s an official wrap, there is no excuses come game 3-4 just because will have the city behind our back. The momentum will be present on both games 3-4 so it should be 2 certified fire games at clips home. Clips in 5/6 I’m not counting tomorrows game to be a dub but the next 3 gonna be sure fire dubs 3 games in a row 😎
PHX adjustment: GET READY FOR RUSS TO NOT GO 3-19 👌🏼
Get ready for more T Mann to lock up Warren next 💪🏼💪🏼 Along with whoever else wants smoke ✊🏼
PHX adjustment: Powell gone score more than 14 👌🏼
PHX adjustment:. Booker was fouling mofos all night = foul trouble this time
Kwai is Jordan
I’d like to see the Clips push the pace more in game two. Not too many fast break opportunities for the clippers in game one. Run them off the floor with Russ, Mann and Bones!
1. Batum needs to hit his corner 3's.
2. RoCo needs more Playing time.
3. Bones Hyland needs to Play Smart Basketball.
4. RW playing aggressive defense against KD again, If his Offense was in the Cylinder then we're still good.
I’ve always said the best matchup for the Clips was the Suns, it’s a no brained, the Mavs and Celtics gave us a blueprint in dealing with their stars and we have the personnel to run with them, the Lings and Pels have our ticket, young and fast, that would have been the worst match up. We match well with the Suns and even though we lose to Nuggets we match up better with them than the Kings as well, they ply slow just like the Clippers. Clips need to go 10-11 deep and play RoCo, get fresh legs out there.
I still believe the kings was the best match up vs the clippers.their lack of defense coupled with the fact Russ plays really well against them leads me to believe that series would have been over in 5.
